Meet the founders heading to the Blue Earth Summit 2026

Seven Techscaler companies are attending London's Blue Earth Summit (Oct 14–16) to pitch sustainability solutions to 1,000+ top impact investors.

Every year over 5000 investors, innovators and industry leaders gather in London for the Blue Earth Summit. This year we’re excited to be bringing seven Techscaler founders into that room from October 14-16. 

Blue Earth connects purpose-driven innovators working on social and environmental solutions with global investors committed to funding a sustainable future. This year’s key speakers include the likes of Deborah Meaden from Dragons Den to Freddy Ward, Co-Founder and CEO of Wild. Across three days, attendees will dive into talks and interactive sessions spanning tech, climate, nature, business and investment. 

Why Blue Earth Summit? 

Blue Earth Summit connects climate-focused startups directly with hundreds of impact driven investors who are looking to back sustainable businesses, offering founders a rare opportunity to be face to face with the people who can accelerate their growth. This year’s cohort will also have their own booth to showcase their innovations directly to potential customers, partners and investors. ‍

‍
The 2026 Cohort

These seven founders are building the next wave of sustainability led business. From AI-driven home retrofits to new biofuels and distributed energy platforms, they are creating scalable solutions for a greener future. 

Meet the founders heading to London:

SilviBio - Alicja Dzieciol 

SilviBio provides circular, peat-free growing substrates with a 90% lower carbon footprint to eliminate harmful peat use.

Regeno - Adarsh Bhardwaj 

Regeno designs plug-and-play wind turbines delivering clean energy faster, removing barriers with a system that’s easier to buy, install and operate.

Maricene - Kartikay Dhingra

What the companies get: 

  • An individual booth to showcase their company and meet potential investors, customers and partners. 
  • Access to 1000+ investors, founders and industry leaders. 
  • Direct support from Techscaler’s Entrepreneur in Residence, Claudia Freigang, who will be on the ground to help founders navigate opportunities and optimise their time at the summit. 
  • Access to a packed programme of talks and interactive sessions focused on the future economy.
