Raise Your Impact

Incentive Prize Competitions

Together we find and validate innovations for a better world.

SGC works collaboratively with partners to deliver impactful prize competitions and accelerate purpose-driven innovation. Providing ‘prize competitions as a service’, we act as your partner to scope, launch and run competitions that uncover new solutions to long-standing challenges.

Utilizing industry best practices and leading collaboration processes, such as the Challenge Dialogue System®, we work to bring diverse stakeholders together around a given challenge. We determine what is ‘prizeable’, where innovators are most likely to deliver solutions and where there is the greatest potential for impact.

ESG / Sustainability

Take action to create a better world

Regardless of if you apply the lens of ESG, sustainability or climate change, taking action to create a better world is an imperative.

With over 20 years of experience addressing sustainability, SGC has worked across the spectrum of challenges. Impact begins with a comprehensive and defendable sustainability strategy, but also quickly transitions to action.

While understanding the myriad of sustainability issues and approaches, we work with clients to define how they can lead and have lasting impact on their terms.

High-Impact Innovation

Bridge the gap to enable industrialization

Taking innovation to scale is difficult. Start-ups and large corporates, who are potential clients, often do not speak the same language and the tools to enable large-scale industrialization are not the same as what’s needed to innovate in the first place.

We work with start-ups and large corporates to bridge this divide:

Large Corporates: We work as a partner to define a process to assess and engage new technology solutions and structure an engagement plan that benefits both parties.

Emergent Solutions: We work with technologies that have high-impact potential to help plan and execute industrialization and deployment at scale.

Decarbonization & Carbon Capture

Deploy projects for real impact

Climate change is our collective existential challenge. Industrial and direct air capture solutions will be a critical part of addressing it.

SGC has worked with decarbonization and carbon capture technologies since 2005. We understand how they work, how they interact with climate policy and how they can be deployed for impact.

We work with large corporates, investors and start-ups to facilitate industrialization and scale.

Eric was a direct champion of the Carbon XPRIZE where his approach and persistence lead to funding by eight multinational energy companies. His enthusiasm, diligence and drive are effectively directed at initiatives that can have real impact beyond the boundaries of conventional thinking.
