CLIC RECYCLE Recognized Among the Semi-Finalists of the 2026 THRIVE Global Impact Challenge

Innovation has the greatest impact when it addresses challenges that extend far beyond a single industry. Around the world, agriculture is being reshaped by the need to restore ecosystems, strengthen food security, improve water management, and build resilience in the face of climate change. Every year, the THRIVE Global Impact Challenge, organized by SVG Ventures | THRIVE, brings together startups working at the forefront of these transformations, highlighting technologies with the potential to redefine the future of food and agriculture. Following more than 2,000 applications submitted from across the globe, CLIC RECYCLE is proud to have been selected as one of the 48 semi-finalists in the 2026 edition of the challenge.

The recognition places CLIC RECYCLE alongside innovators developing solutions across six key areas: regenerative agriculture, artificial intelligence and automation, animal health and nutrition, climate resilience, water and waste management, and food security. As a company dedicated to transforming human hair waste into regenerative environmental and agricultural solutions, being selected reinforces the growing importance of circular economy approaches within the global innovation ecosystem. It is an encouraging reminder that addressing today's environmental challenges often begins by rethinking resources that have long been overlooked and discovering new ways to return value to natural systems.

The next stage of the competition offers an opportunity to present CLIC RECYCLE's technology before an international panel of investors, corporate leaders, and industry experts representing some of agriculture's most influential organizations. More than a competition, the THRIVE Global Impact Challenge serves as a meeting point where entrepreneurs, researchers, and decision-makers exchange ideas, challenge conventional thinking, and accelerate solutions capable of creating measurable environmental impact. For CLIC RECYCLE, participating as a semi-finalist represents another step in sharing its vision of regenerative innovation while building relationships that can help expand the reach of its technology beyond Spain.

Being named among the 2026 THRIVE Global Impact Challenge semi-finalists is both an achievement and a source of motivation. It reflects the progress that has been made while reinforcing the work that still lies ahead in advancing more regenerative and circular models for agriculture. CLIC RECYCLE is grateful to SVG Ventures | THRIVE for recognizing the potential of its mission and congratulates the other outstanding startups selected this year. Together, these innovators demonstrate that the future of agriculture will be shaped not by a single breakthrough, but by a collective commitment to developing solutions that restore ecosystems, strengthen communities, and create a more sustainable world.
