At Strong by Form, we are happy to announce a significant achievement that solidifies our position as a leading Climatech startup on the global stage. After five years of dedication and innovation, we are honored to have secured the prestigious Cleantech Open Global Forum award, an accolade of exceptional significance as it originates from the heart of Silicon Valley.

This award marks our 19th recognition this year, serving as a testament to our commitment to sustainable innovation. Our journey at Strong by Form has always been propelled by the ambition to revolutionize the construction industry through cutting-edge technologies, and this award is a testament to our dedication to this mission.

Celebrating Success

Andrés Mitnik, Co-founder and CEO of Strong by Form, expressed his excitement over the remarkable achievement. He stated, “Unbelievable! After five years of tireless yet immensely passionate and enjoyable work, we’ve successfully positioned Strong by Form as one of the world’s foremost Climatech startups. Winning the Cleantech Open Global Forum award marks our 19th recognition this year, yet it’s truly special because it comes from the heart of Silicon Valley.”

Strong by Form’s victory in the Cleantech Open Global Forum serves as a testament to the team’s relentless dedication and innovative approach. Mitnik extended his heartfelt congratulations to Diego Lyon, who played an important role in this achievement, and the entire Strong by Form team, which he regards as more than just colleagues but a family.

A Vision of Sustainable Innovation

The Cleantech Open’s Global Ideas Pitch Competition seeks out the most promising cleantech ideas and technologies from companies based outside the United States. This annual competition reaches its culmination in the Fall, with final pitches taking place at the CTO Global Forum in October. Global Ideas offers an exceptional opportunity for international companies seeking to expand their presence and network in the United States.

Strong by Form emerged triumphant, securing not only the main award but also the coveted People’s Choice award. Our company’s innovative approach melds the principles of composite materials with the innate intelligence of wood and advanced robotics, resulting in the creation of freeform, lightweight structural components. This groundbreaking technology has the potential to reshape the construction industry, reduce carbon emissions, and expedite the transition to sustainable building practices.

As we savor the glory of this extraordinary accomplishment, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to Cleantech Open and all those who contributed to this success. The journey toward constructing a more sustainable future has just commenced, and Strong by Form remains steadfastly committed to driving change.
