March 5, 2025 | Vancouver, BC — Foresight Canada has launched Earth Tech: Adapt, a nine-month accelerator program designed to fast-track climate adaptation technologies across critical sectors, including agriculture, forestry, infrastructure, energy, and water management.
As climate risks intensify, industries and municipalities must adopt proactive strategies to enhance resilience. According to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and the Insurance Bureau of Canada, mitigating the worst climate impacts will require $5.3B annually—but every $1 invested today can save $6 in future losses. Earth Tech: Adapt is designed to accelerate the development and deployment of these critical adaptation solutions, equipping innovators with the tools they need to build a stronger, more resilient future.
Earth Tech: Adapt provides cleantech ventures with expert mentorship, industry partnerships, and fundraising support to scale high-impact solutions in areas such as wildfire mitigation, flood prevention, and grid resilience. By fostering commercialization and adoption, this program aims to strengthen Canada’s economic and environmental resilience in an increasingly climate-affected world.
Have a technology that is a good fit for Earth Tech: Adapt?
Climate adaptation is no longer a future concern—it’s a present necessity. Earth Tech: Adapt is bridging the gap between innovation and impact, ensuring the solutions we need to build resilient communities and industries are developed, scaled, and adopted today, to ensure a better future tomorrow.
