Business started at Climathon Wellington
Here are just a few of the businesses that have come out fo Climathon Wellington and continued.
Nude Grocer
Groceries without the bad wrap.
We like groceries. A lot. We'd even go so far as to say we're wrapped about them. We’re not so wrapped about the plastic they come in. Which is why we've gone ahead and created Nude Grocer! Groceries without the bad wrap.
Collaborate
Th difference you can make today
Collaborate is a mobile app that connects people to volunteer opportunities that match their skills and interests. Collaborate makes volunteering fast, fun and addictive.
Economate
Minimising waste the Economate way.
Using waste for something better than landfill just takes a bit of creativity. Economate takes waste from building sites and provides raw materials to students through their network of schools which turn that into design, furniture and useful projects.
Refill NZ
Refill and save our oceans.
We are reducing plastic water bottle pollution in NZ by having thousands of cafes around Aotearoa allow people to refill their water bottles for free!
