ABP Energy Ventures Accelerator Expo
Associated British Ports and Plug and Play UK proudly presents the Energy Ventures Accelerator Expo 2025!
Hosted by ABP, and powered by Plug and Play, this event is the culmination of the first year of the Energy Ventures Accelerator – a programme dedicated to enabling the energy transition by creating clusters of innovative ventures in the UK’s key industrial hubs.
Join us on a journey through the growth of a start-up to full commercialisation. We will explore how corporations seek to deploy novel technologies to decarbonise their supply chains, how investors assess ClimateTech ventures, and how the UK is well positioned to capture the economic opportunity of the energy transition to enable industrial and maritime decarbonisation.
Here’s what to look forward to:
• Panels discussing world-leading climate technology developments and the pivotal role of corporations as the buyers of innovative technologies
• Engaging pitches by startups and scale-ups showcasing breakthrough solutions with real- world applications.
• Discussions by leaders in corporations, industry and finance on overcoming barriers to scaling ClimateTech ventures and effective collaboration models between industry and innovators.
• Special announcements showcasing the impacts to date and future plans of EVA
• Networking Opportunities: Connect with top innovators, corporates, and stakeholders driving energy transformation.
