After two successful editions, we are thrilled to announce the launch of the third round of CEEZER’s Carbon Coalition program. Applications are open until February 28. If you're developing an innovative, scalable carbon removal solution, this program is the perfect fit for your project.
“The CEEZER Carbon Coalition program empowers startups in the voluntary carbon market by supporting their journey from concept to full-scale implementation,” explains Dr. Carla Woydt, CEEZER’s Chief Impact Officer. “Our carbon market specialists provide comprehensive support throughout the commercialization journey, including expert guidance on market visibility, buyer engagement strategies, contract management and carbon credit pricing."
Empowering carbon removal innovators
For early-stage project developers, scaling presents numerous challenges. Success requires both diverse sales channels and robust contracting expertise. The CEEZER Carbon Coalition program opens the door to our extensive global buyer network, helping your company build visibility and leverage our established marketplace connections.
As demand for net-zero compliant solutions continues to grow, it's crucial that project developers meet evolving market standards. The program provides comprehensive coverage of:
- Market intelligence on buyer motivations and challenges, within the CDR context as well as strategic market guidance.
- Detailed analysis of buyer behavior, including buyer segments, sales channels, and decision-making frameworks.
- Expert guidance on certification processes, registry choice, and inventory optimization.
- Comprehensive support for pricing strategies, contract management, payment processing, and legal considerations.
Nicolas Sdez, past graduate and CEO of PRONOE, illustrates the value of his team’s experience in Cohort 02:
“The CEEZER Carbon Coalition was a unique opportunity to get insights from high-quality CDR buyers' requirements and expectations while helping us think about the right information infrastructures, narratives, and partnerships to ease customer’s adoption,” says Nicolas. “Interactive exchanges with CDR companies of similar stage, under the guidance of seasoned experts at CEEZER, will help us implement best practices.”
Those best practices will become useful - quickly.
Corporations are actively seeking high-quality carbon removal solutions, and our program connects promising early-stage projects to our extensive buyer network. We provide crucial market insights and support your go-to-market strategy with the overall goal of scaling the voluntary carbon market and securing volumes needed for net-zero aligned climate action.
