Purpose
Our planet is facing a green crisis. Our enormous demand for energy is
outpacing supply at an alarming rate. We are exhausting dwindling
resources in ways that accelerate carbon emissions, global warming, and
harmful climate change. And our addiction to oil is funding both sides
of the war on terrorists, weakening democracy and our economy.
Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers believes that entrepreneurs will lead
the way in combating this crisis. To accelerate and encourage
innovation, we are launching the annual $100,000 "KPCB Prize for Green
Innovation." This award will recognize entrepreneurs whose creativity
and dedication result in substantial advancements in green technology.
Eligibility
Any person, group, organization,
or company creating significant, sustainable innovation in green
technology. This breakthrough may be in green energy generation,
storage, conservation, policy, or any other field.
