We’ve just launched the BOOST x CEF: Green Urban Tech open call, inviting innovators to submit tech- and digitally enabled solutions that can help our partner cities in Armenia, Kosovo (as per UNSCR 1244), Montenegro, North Macedonia and Ukraine, accelerate their green and digital transitions. The programme is run by UNDP BOOST together with the City Experiment Fund (CEF) and supported by the Slovak Ministry of Finance.

We’re particularly looking for solutions that can:

  • Turn data into greener city decisions
  • Engage residents in the green transition
  • Build resilient, low-waste, nature-positive urban systems

Selected teams will:

  • Demo their solution during the virtual BOOST Discovery Days (19-21 November 2025), directly to city representatives.
  • Access curated matchmaking and partnership support
  • Compete for up to USD 30,000 to pilot in CEF partner cities 
  • Be featured in BOOST’s open solutions directory and innovation series
