Our approach
Climate-KIC aims to significantly accelerate the innovation required for a transformation to a low-carbon economy, and to ensure Europe benefits from new technologies, company growth and jobs. This requires consideration of the full value chain from the innovative idea to research and development and further to testing and implementation, a process initiated and overseen by the Climate-KIC nodes.
