Please note that while the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI) is based in Los Angeles, CA, this role is based in Brooklyn, New York in-person at our BATWorks location.  About LACI  The Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI) is a nonprofit organization creating an inclusive green economy by unlocking innovation (through working with startups to accelerate the commercialization of clean technologies), transforming markets (through catalytic partnerships in zero emission transportation, clean energy and sustainable cities) and enhancing communities (through workforce development, pilots and other programs).

Originally founded as an economic development initiative by the City of Los Angeles and its Department of Water & Power (LADWP), LACI is recognized as one of the most innovative business incubators in the world.

  • The National Clean Energy Incubator Coalition, led by LACI , advocates for increased federal funding for incubation organizations LACI Cleantech Debt Fund , the nation’s first early-stage cleantech startup debt fund In New York City, NYCEDC has appointed a consortium led by LACI and the Cambridge Innovation Center (CIC) to design and operate “ BATWorks ,” a cutting-edge climate innovation hub at the Brooklyn Army Terminal (BAT) in Sunset Park.
