Eco-Tank for Ecopreneurs

Eco-Tank for Ecopreneurs is the flagship program of Live Peace Tech, designed to empower the next generation of environmental innovators. Student teams are challenged to address urgent issues related to climate change and biodiversity loss by developing creative solutions in the form of ideas, prototypes, or products. These solutions are then presented to a panel of expert judges. The program offers a dynamic platform for young people to explore and implement sustainable innovations while cultivating a spirit of eco-conscious entrepreneurship. Throughout the process, participants receive expert mentorship to help refine their concepts, and the judging panel provides insightful feedback to support further development.

Engaging in ETE events equips young people with essential entrepreneurial and life skills, including problem-solving, communication, critical thinking, collaboration, conflict resolution, and leadership skills. Participants also have the opportunity to build a network with like-minded individuals, connect with potential investors, and garner support for their entrepreneurial ventures.

This program goes beyond rewarding innovative eco-friendly projects, but empowers youth, nurturing their personal and professional growth while making a positive impact on the environment. Eco-tank for Ecopreneuers serves as a multifaceted experience, equipping participants with the skills, networks, and resources needed to become effective contributors to a sustainable future.
