SmartE Make Its Way In APAC 25 List

SmartE (TVV Pvt Ltd) has included in the 2019 APAC 25 list produced by Cleantech Group, a global provider of research, consulting and events to catalyze opportunities in sustainable innovation. SmartE is one of the 5 Indian companies to be featured in the list. 

The APAC 25 is a list of independent companies from the Asia Pacific region engaged in sustainable innovation that is viewed by the market as likely to have a significant impact in a five to ten-year time frame. 

Cleantech Group put together the second annual list of 25 companies through a combination of APAC-related inputs from the annual Global Cleantech 100 process with detailed contributions from an APAC 25 expert panel. The companies selected had the strongest patterns of agreement across all the input points and were scored the highest. 

“SmartE is proud to be included in the list compiled by Cleantech Group. SmartE’s mission is to provide an affordable means of shared transportation for convenient short urban trips while reducing congestion, and carbon footprint. It has been our relentless pursuit to shift the paradigm of Indian mobility towards the adoption of electric mobility and getting recognized for our efforts, is like an impetus to do and to achieve more.” said Goldie Srivastava, Co-founder, and CEO, SmartE.

Members of the APAC 25 expert panel play an important role in creating the list. Each provides between three and nine nominations, no more than a third of which can be portfolio companies (in the case of investors). Expert panellists can weight their nominations, and all nominations are blind (no expert sees the other panelists’ nominations). These nominations are then combined with the outcomes from the Global Cleantech 100 process, which benefits from thousands of data points.

The second annual APAC 25 list is made possible by the continuing support of Enterprise Singapore. “This year we are excited to feature another twenty-five companies from around the Asia Pacific region with solutions to enable a more digitized, decarbonized and resource-efficient industrial future,” said Richard Youngman, CEO of Cleantech Group. “We look forward to introducing many of them on stage at next month’s Cleantech Forum Asia in Singapore.”
