What is Climate KIC?
It is Europe’s leading climate innovation agency and community, supporting cities, regions, countries and industries to bridge the gap between climate commitments and current reality.
Climate KIC has its headquarters in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and leverages centres across Europe to support start-up companies, to bring together partners on innovation projects and to educate students to bring about a connected, creative transformation of knowledge and ideas into products and services that help mitigate and adapt to climate change.
Climate KIC currently has offices in France (Paris), Germany (Berlin), Denmark (Copenhagen), the UK (London), Italy (Bologna), Poland (Warsaw) and Spain (Valencia).
Climate KIC is one of the Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs) created in 2010 by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), the EU body tasked with creating sustainable European growth while dealing with the global challenges of our time.
