Green start-ups from the Netherlands, Germany, Great Britain, Norway and Sweden, the countries with a Postcode Lottery, can compete for a place in the final of the Postcode Lotteries Green Challenge. This international sustainability competition has grown to become one of the largest of its kind in the world.

Green entrepreneurs can submit their business plans between 1 March and 12:00 CEST (noon) on 15 April 2021. The organisation will make an initial selection from these entries. The start-ups selected will be informed in mid-May that they can develop their plans and continue to compete for a place in the final. The preliminary jury will announce the 25 nominees at the end of June. In early September, a shortlist of five entries will be announced and go on to the final at the end of 2021. The start-ups will pitch their ideas to an international jury. In the final, the jury will decide who wins the first prize of €500,000 and which start-up will be runner-up, winning €200,000. The other three finalists will receive €100,000 each. In addition to the prize money, all finalists will also receive some six months of expert coaching to help them optimise their business opportunities.
