We are proud to announce that Äerd Lab has been selected to join the 2025 cohort of Venture For ClimateTech, a leading global accelerator supporting early-stage climate tech startups.

Venture For ClimateTech is powered by NextCorps and SecondMuse and supported by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA).

The program selected 20 companies out of 311 applicants from 66 countries, all working on impactful technologies to address climate change. Each selected team receives up to $50,000 in non-dilutive funding as well as access to expert mentorship, go-to-market support, and investor readiness guidance.Being part of this prestigious program marks an exciting milestone for Äerd Lab.

Our work focuses on developing 3D-printed, low-carbon building materials using locally sourced clay and construction waste. By combining digital manufacturing and material science, we aim to significantly reduce the environmental footprint of the construction industry. This accelerator program, running from May to September 2025, will help us refine our business model, validate new markets, and prepare for international growth.

We are thrilled to engage with an ecosystem of like-minded innovators tackling climate challenges with bold, scalable ideas.
