CRIN named Cleantech Supporter of the Year

We are very proud to share that CRIN has been recognized as Cleantech Supporter of the Year at Foresight Canada’s 2025 Alberta Cleantech Awards!

This honour belongs to the entire CRIN community. Thank you to our members across Canada for your collaboration and innovation.

As CRIN President Joy Romero shared during the award ceremony in Calgary:

“We are a network of networks. Our job is to make your job easier in bringing your technologies to commercialization and widespread adoption, and we want you to be successful. If you are an investor, we want you to find the best technology there is, and we can help you do that.”

Congratulations to all the finalists and winners, including:

• Dow – Adopter of the Year

• Emissions Reduction Alberta – Funder of the Year

• Ayrton Energy – Startup Venture of the Year

• Nanoprecise – Scaleup Venture of the Year

To date, CRIN has supported 42 late-stage clean technology projects (in addition to 25 earlier-stage technologies) focused on areas such as carbon capture, emissions reduction, environmental footprint reduction, alternative fuels, and non-combustive use of hydrocarbons. Many of these projects advanced two or more Technology Readiness Levels, and many are now forging international partnerships.
