While green technologies are gaining momentum, a recent[report](https://www.eco-business.com/press-releases/asia-pacific-at-a-climate-inflection-point-new-kpmg-google-report-calls-for-coordinated-action-to-scale-greentech-ecosystems/)shows they aren’t scaling fast enough to keep up with the region’s rising environmental risks\. To help innovators tackle these environmental challenges, we’re launching an inaugural Google DeepMind Accelerator program in APAC focused on “AI for the Planet\.” This three\-month program is designed for startups, research teams and nonprofits across the region to use frontier AI to solve problems in nature, climate, agriculture, energy and more\. Selected organizations will receive expert mentorship, tailored support and help integrating frontier AI and science AI models from Google AI experts into their projects or products\. If you're working on climate solutions, we want to help you scale your work\. The program kicks off with an in\-person bootcamp in Singapore, and you can[learn more and register your interest today](https://goo.gle/GDM-Accelerator-APAC)\.
