Islamabad:Accelerate Prosperity, an initiative of the Aga Khan Development Network, in collaboration with the NUST Professional Development Centre, successfully concluded the Certification in Sustainable Innovation (CSI) 2025, a national incubation programme supporting climate-conscious startups in Pakistan.
The programme, funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) of Germany through Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW) Development Bank, aimed to support early-stage and post-revenue businesses developing green or greening solutions by helping them overcome barriers such as limited funding, lack of technical expertise, and weak market linkages.
The certification awarded through the programme is officially accredited by the Ministry of Climate Change and Environmental Coordination. The programme was a three-month journey designed to equip impact-driven ventures with the tools, knowledge, and networks needed to scale sustainable innovation. Around 20 high-potential startups from across Pakistan were selected through a competitive process. Participants engaged in virtual business courses, in-person expert training, tailored advisory, and had access to product testing facilities at NUST, gaining practical insight and skills to support their green growth journey. The closing ceremony, held at the National Science and Technology Park, NUST, featured keynote speakers, startup pitches, and
participation from investors.
