The purpose of this report is to present the PICU framework and the potential for incubators to play a key role in the urgent work to deliver the deep and fast emission reductions needed to avoid dangerous climate change. PICU is a framework with four steps to help incubators, identify start-ups with significant potential, strengthen sustainability ideas, support clustering, and enable accelerated uptake of the solutions from the start-ups.
