We bridge the gap between technical innovation and commercial success.

By connecting ventures with strategic partners, grants, and alternative venture models, we turn breakthroughs into market players.

Our Services

We move beyond advisory to actively co-create, coordinate, and operationalise commercialisation pathways. Here are what we can offer to help you.

Commercialisation  Design

Using a practice-driven approach, we assess each venture’s capabilities and design a tailored pathway to scale.

Market Validation and International Access

We pave the way to new countries and new ecosystems.​ Through our global academic and industry network, we support ventures in validating demand and entering new markets.

Grant and Capital Mobilisation

Climate technologies often face a financing gap between pilot and scale. We support ventures in identifying and securing grants and funding structures that match their stage and ambition.

Ecosystem and Value Chain Coordination

OCTD creates coordination across ecosystem stakeholders such as researchers, startups, industry actors, and policymakers to accelerate implementation of technologies.

Capacity Building and Masterclass

We strengthen the people behind the technologies. Through tailored trainings and small-cohort modules, we equip founders and researchers with practical commercialization tools.

Data and Benchmarks for Deployment

OCTD overcomes one of the most persistent barriers: data scarcity. Early- and mid-stage ventures often lack structured, decision-grade evidence needed in accessing capital and partnerships. We organize, strengthen, and communicate technical and impact data.

Our Approach

OCTD operates as a Collaborative Venture Development partner. We scout across academia, industry, and global ecosystems to identify climate technology ventures with strong potential.

 

Based on each venture’s needs and capabilities, we determine custom interventions that may include:

 

  • Opening new international pathways

  • Matching with proof-of-concept partners

  • Creating grant opportunities

  • Delivering specialized training

  • Coordinating value chains and ecosystem actors
