Cambridge Cleantech has always played a key role in helping corporates and cleantech innovators meet and build partnerships. This impact has been amplified by our involvement in the SCALE UP project, which connects five successful cleantech clusters in Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Together, SCALE UP partners have successfully connected more than 500 innovative SMEs to corporate buyers.

Paul Clark, CEO of MasterFilter, met Sustainable Ventures at a Cambridge Cleantech Finance special interest group event in January 2018. Two months later, their Sustainable Accelerator fund invested £100,000 in the cleantech start-up as lead investor, allowing MasterFilter to start their business journey.
