About the competition
The Emerging Technologies Competition identifies and supports UK-based chemistry-led technologies.
This exciting annual event has announced the 24 innovative companies that will pitch their technologies to the competition’s panel of judges at the pitch final on 4 July.
The finalists were selected from a competitive application round where their technologies were judged on:
- The problem that their technology is addressing.
- The market opportunities and potential impact of their technology.
- Their planned approach to commercialisation.
The judging panel, comprised of experienced deep tech chemistry innovators and leaders, will select one winner from each of the competition's categories; Enabling Technologies, Energy, Environment and Health to take away a share of the £100,000 prize pot to help advance their technologies.
