UK entrepreneurs invited to compete for £3million to fund innovative technologies (bis.gov.uk)

"The Green Genius - or 'Greenius' - contest will look for solutions to questions of food, water and energy security, such as how to keep bills down for consumers and businesses, how to better manage our food and water resources, and ensure a secure supply of clean, green and reliable energy.

Entrepreneurs and businesses will be invited to compete for £3million to fund the further development and commercialisation of innovative technologies. The Deputy Prime Minister will launch the contest before leaving the Rio+20 summit in Brazil, where he has argued for the importance of using natural resources sustainably for long-term prosperity. Under current projections, by 2030 the world will need at least 50% more food, 45% more energy, and 30% more water, and this will need to be produced without further damaging the environment."
