The Green Tech Legal Collaborative (GTLC) is in its third year of providing pro bono legal support for green tech start-ups from Imperial College's Enterprise Lab and Undaunted. This pioneering and collaborative pro bono programme, which was started by Bloomberg, Ropes & Gray, and Willkie Farr & Gallagher, was created from the founding members’ shared vision of supporting climate action and sustainability through a legal/compliance pro bono initiative. GTLC launched in 2021 with the initial goal of helping six green tech start-ups navigate a wide range of complex legal and compliance challenges, from corporate governance to IP protection.
Over time, the programme has grown and evolved to support more start-ups across additional practice areas, with further law firms joining in to create a full-service collaborative programme for legal and compliance professionals who want to do their part in supporting climate action. This past year, Bloomberg was joined for phase 3 by Ropes & Gray, Willkie Farr & Gallagher, Ashurst, Mayer Brown, Travers Smith, Shearman & Sterling, and Venner Shipley in supporting 18 green tech start-ups through the GTLC. Phase 4 is due to begin later this spring 2024.
GTLC won the Most Effective Pro Bono Partnership award at the LawWorks Pro Bono Awards 2023.
