CleanStart is an initiative of the Sacramento Area Regional Technology Alliance (SARTA), designed to accelerate the development of clean energy technology ventures within the Greater Sacramento Region. CleanStart was born out of an innovative needs assessment study that was jointly funded and managed by the California Energy Commission, the Sacramento Municipal Utility District, and the McClellan Technology Incubator. CleanStart looks to stimulate the development and success of early-stage companies that will provide the next generation of clean, renewable, and efficient energy technology by helping these companies assemble solid management teams, secure adequate funding, and accelerate the commercialization of sound product ideas into the market. Through this mission, CleanStart will create jobs and wealth for the greater Capitol Corridor region and new products to help society be more sustainable. The 2012 CleanStart Progress Report revealed Sacramento regions' clean tech companies to have generated revenue exceeding $1.5 Billion in 2011. CleanStart has continued to grow since restarting in 2016. From holding seven educational and networking events in 2017, fifteen in 2018, to over twenty in 2019. Connecting with over 1000 stakeholders face to face.
