Colorado NextCycle opens application period for 2019-2020

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is now accepting applications for the second season of Colorado NextCycle, a state-funded incentive program designed to encourage businesses to make products from recovered commodities, such as recyclables or organic materials, instead of using new materials.

Colorado NextCycle helps to identify teams with ideas for developing or improving recycling end markets in the state. It also provides a supportive atmosphere for innovative thinking and partnership development and nurtures viable end-market business ideas to fundable, shovel-ready status.

The 2019-2020 season of Colorado NextCycle began with the release of the  project  “Jump Kit.” The Jump Kit contains criteria and instructions on how to apply to participate in the program and access to a free library of resources to assist project teams in developing and strengthening their letters of intent. The Jump Kit is available for download on the state’s website www.colorado.gov/cdphe/nextcycle.
