The ReGen Innovation Accelerator 2025 is your fast track to turning your circularity, waste and water management solutions into game-changing businesses. In India, where the speed of urbanisation and sustainability intersect, there is a monumental opportunity for startups and entrepreneurs to develop innovative solutions to drive real changes and shape a sustainable future. - Circularity: Transitioning to a circular economy could yield an annual benefit of $61 billion by 2050. This presents a significant opportunity to build businesses focused on recycling, upcycling, sustainable design and resource efficiency. - Waste Management: Urban India generates 62 million tonnes of solid waste annually, and the figure is expected to shoot up further. Leverage this as an opportunity to innovate in recycling, composting and waste-to-energy technologies. - Water Crisis: India is grappling with a severe water shortage, with per capita water availability declining at an alarming rate. Within the next decade, water demand is projected to outpace supply by twofold, potentially affecting 6% of the nation’s GDP. The urgency for innovative solutions in water efficiency, recycling, wastewater treatment and reuse has never been greater. Now is your moment! We eagerly look forward to supporting startups and entrepreneurs like you who are willing to solve these pressing problems.
