The PVBLIC Foundation has officially launched REIN – Resilience, Entrepreneurship, Innovation & Nature – a bold, global initiative designed to rethink how we confront environmental challenges.
REIN isn’t just a program. It’s a movement. Built on the foundational belief that the most effective climate solutions are local, scalable, and sovereign, REIN is turning local knowledge into global impact.
By establishing hubs in universities around the world, REIN empowers student innovators and entrepreneurs to harness local insights, transforming them into globally relevant solutions. The results are already speaking volumes:
- Over 270 applications
- 181 pitches from emerging climate leaders
- 27 ventures selected to move forward
But more than the numbers, what’s truly resonating is the momentum.
REIN is making climate entrepreneurship mainstream – creating a pipeline where bold ideas are sourced, supported, and scaled. With the backing of key partners like Pvblic Foundation, UBS, Clean Tech Hub, and a growing coalition of academic hosts, REIN is rapidly expanding across South America, Asia, and Africa.
The goal? To give climate tech entrepreneurs the capital, training, and leadership connections they need to bring their ideas to life and to market.
Today, REIN is inviting governments, scientists, philanthropists, investors, and changemakers everywhere to join this growing ecosystem.
Together, we can build a more resilient future – powered by local innovation, global collaboration, and a shared commitment to climate action.
