• Shortlisting: Promising applicants are shortlisted for deeper evaluation. This stage may involve an interview or a request for additional documentation.
• Selection committee review: Shortlisted ventures may be invited for detailed discussions or a presentation before a panel that includes experts from Greenovation Hub, EarthON Foundation and industry partners.
• Bootcamp selection: Finalists are chosen to take part in the 2-day residential bootcamp.

Final decisions weigh the likely impact of the innovation, its scalability, the strength of the team and how well the solution fits the Indian context.
