The Global Cleantech 100 is an annual guide to the leading companies and themes in sustainable innovation. It features the private, independent, for-profit companies best positioned to solve tomorrow's clean technology challenges. This year marks the 10th edition of the list.
Mansoor Hamayun, CEO and Co-Founder of BBOXX, said, "We are thrilled to have been recognized in the Global Cleantech 100 list. It is a testament to the way our technology and relentless focus on innovation are making a meaningful difference to people's lives around the world.”
The list combines Cleantech Group's research data with qualitative judgments from nominations and insight from a global 87-member expert panel comprised of leading investors and experts from corporations and industrials active in technology and innovation scouting. The panel broadly represents the global cleantech community and results in a list with a powerful base of respect and support from many important players within the cleantech innovation ecosystem. The list is sponsored by Chubb.
"Our tenth edition is dominated by innovations for the future of food and mobility, and a decentralized and digitized future not only for energy, but for the industrial world more generally," said Richard Youngman, CEO, Cleantech Group. "This is a far cry from the dominance of hardware, solar and biofuels in the inaugural Global Cleantech 100 in 2009."
The complete list of 100 companies was announced on January 28 at the 17th annual Cleantech Forum in San Francisco.
