SUMMARY:Resilience in The New European Summer: Securing Farms\, Forests\, and Cities for a Competitive Europe 
DESCRIPTION:The context\n\n\n\nSummer 2026 in Europe will not be like summers gone by. The New European Summer\, the one we have been getting to know over the past ten years\, is one of ruinous crop destruction on European farms\, life-threatening heat in European cities\, and rampaging fires in European forests. In 2022 and 2023 alone\, more than 100\,000 deaths were recorded in Europe due to extreme heat. The loss of lives and homes is compounded by the economic damage\, which devastates both rural and urban prosperity.  \n\n\n\nWhile public and political awareness of the problem is growing with every burnt house and lost harvest\, the only area of consensus is that not nearly enough is being done. In September 2025\, the European Parliament debated the growing challenge of climate resilience and representatives of the regions most impacted called for decisive action. This year\, decisive and proactive responses are needed to help those most impacted by the New European Summer.  \n\n\n\nHow this event addresses it\n\n\n\nThis event\, co-hosted by Kristian Vigenin MEP and Grégory Allione MEP will bring together policymakers\, scientists\, and front-line workers – the groups whose insights are essential for both competitiveness and security over the short and long term. Building on these contributions\, the event can deliver a European resilience agenda that is both effective and achievable\, for this summer\, and the summers to come.   \n\n\n\nPolicy levers to be discussed include\, for the short-term\, ensuring that EU early warning systems are fully operational (via Copernicus and the European Climate and Health Observatory)\, that heat-health protocols are supported and coordinated across care systems through EU4Health\, and that operational and financial support is available to under-resourced volunteer fire services strengthened through the Union Civil Protection Mechanism\, including rescEU. \n\n\n\nOver the longer term\, key EU programmes need to be strengthened to reduce summer climate risks across sectors. The forthcoming EU Climate Resilience and Risk Management Integrated Framework and the European Plan for Affordable Housing should embed binding resilience standards\, scaling passive and district cooling and heat-resilient urban design to reduce urban heat. Implementation of the Nature Restoration Law should be aligned with fire risk reduction\, supporting more resilient forest landscapes. Finally\, future CAP reforms should include eco-schemes and risk management instruments that help farmers adapt to heat\, drought\, and wildfire through water-efficient practices\, climate-resilient crops\, and farm-level resilience.  \n\n\n\nJoin us at the European Parliament (Room 3HI) to learn how you can contribute to shaping the European resilience agenda.  \n\n\n\nRegistrations close on Wednesday 24 June \n\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n14:00 – 14:10 Welcome addressKristian Vigenin MEP\, Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats \n\n\n\n14:10 – 14:50 Moderated Panel: State of Play and Path Forward: Policy\, Science\, and Frontline Realities Moderator: Dr. Kirsten Dunlop (CEO\, Climate KIC)  \n\n\n\n\nGrégory Allione MEP\, Renew\n\n\n\nDr. Elina Bardram\, Director\, Climate Resilience and Information Management\, DG Climate Action\, European Commission\n\n\n\nDr. Daniel Zimmer\, Water and Forestry Expert\, Climate KIC\n\n\n\nStéphanie Richard\, Belgium-based nurse\, Founder of Care-Act-Terre\n\n\n\n\nInvited to discuss summer weather impacts and the near and long-term policies needed to ensure European resilience and competitiveness across farms\, forests\, and cities.   \n\n\n\n14:50 – 15:00 Call to Action Gregory Allione MEP\, Renew \n\n\n\n15:00 – 15:15 Questions

SUMMARY:Bursting the Climate Bubble
DESCRIPTION:A lively\, interactive session on building broader\, braver and more unexpected coalitions for climate action.\n\n\n\nClimate events often bring together the same people\, saying the same things\, to people who already agree. \n\n\n\nIf we are serious about climate action\, we need to break out of the bubble and ask: who is missing\, who has the power to shift things\, and how do we build coalitions that actually move the needle? \n\n\n\nHosted by Climate KIC Community\, B Lab and Metta\, this session is all about connecting beyond the usual climate crowd. We’ll explore how businesses\, corporates\, community organisations\, creatives\, campaigners\, policymakers and other less obvious allies can work together more responsibly\, more bravely and more effectively. \n\n\n\nWhat you’ll get from the session:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA sharper look at who is in the climate room\, who is missing and why that matters\n\n\n\nHonest provocations on power\, credibility and responsibility in collective action\n\n\n\nFast\, facilitated networking to help you meet unexpected allies\n\n\n\nPractical ideas for building coalitions that are broader\, braver and less boring\n\n\n\nSpace to challenge assumptions\, swap perspectives and escape the climate echo chamber\n\n\n\nLight catering\, good conversations and hopefully zero performative networking\n\n\n\n\nCome ready to burst the bubble\, meet unlikely allies and rethink who climate action is really for. Most importantly\, come ready to share what you can offer and what you are looking for. \n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\nDavid Watt\, Community Lead\, Climate KIC\n\n\n\nIrving Chan-Gomez\, Strategic Partnerships\, B Lab\n\n\n\nGabriella Hernandez\, Head of Communications\, Metta\n\n\n\n\nThis session is part of the Green Skills Festival\, a London Climate Action Week-affiliated initiative.

SUMMARY:Orientations for a Shared Horizon: East-West Learning in a Time of Climate Transition
DESCRIPTION:The session explores how Asia–Europe relationships can be reimagined in a time of global uncertainty\, geopolitical fragmentation\, and the emergence of well-being economies.  \n\n\n\nThe panel will open the dialogue with speakers from Asia and Europe sharing practical experiences and reflections on what helps societies work better together across regions. It will touch on ideas like care\, love\, and learning from different cultural traditions and ways of living.  \n\n\n\nThe second half of the session moves into facilitated small-group conversations\, where participants will actively engage and explore the themes together.  \n\n\n\nIt’s designed to spark new thinking\, build meaningful connections\, and surface practical examples of collaboration that can inspire future action. Participants will leave with fresh perspectives\, cross-regional connections\, and ideas they can apply in their own organisations\, networks\, and communities. \n\n\n\nWho is this session for?\n\n\n\nThe event would benefit from a deliberately mixed group\, including: \n\n\n\n\nClimate and systems practitioners from Asia and Europe\n\n\n\nPhilanthropy\, finance\, and well-being economy actors\n\n\n\nIndigenous\, cultural\, and movement-based knowledge holders\n\n\n\nFacilitators\, storytellers\, and bridge-builders working across regions or traditions\n\n\n\nPolicymakers and conveners interested in new forms of international cooperation\n\n\n\n\nKey speakers\n\n\n\n\nKirsten Dunlop\, CEO of Climate KIC\n\n\n\nLeo Horn-Phathanothai\, Founder and Convenor\, Bangkok Climate Action Week\n\n\n\nTheo Mitchell\, Global Director Climate\, Children’s Investment Fund Foundation\n\n\n\nSumitra Pasupathy\, Co-Founder\, Philanthropy Dialogues\n\n\n\nNaina Subberwal Batra\, CEO of AVPN \n\n\n\nLuis Alvarado Martinez\, CEO of No. 17 Foundation\n\n\n\n\nThis session is part of the Green Skills Festival\, a London Climate Action Week-affiliated initiative.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Course: How to build a future-ready workforce that delivers on change
DESCRIPTION:The organisations making real progress on their climate targets aren’t just better at training their people. They are better at creating the conditions for success\, enabling learning that translates into action. \n\n\n\nMost corporate sustainability programmes skip straight to the course\, neglecting to design for what will make the training actually stick. \n\n\n\nIn this session\, Kite Insights and Climate KIC will show you what the organisations getting this right are doing differently: a more complete approach to workforce engagement that addresses what happens before and after the training intervention that determines whether learning lands or evaporates. \n\n\n\nWe will cover:\n\n\n\n\nKite Insight’s four-stage engagement framework — Measure\, Engage\, Educate\, Sustain \n\n\n\nExamples in practice: drawing from Climate KIC’s work supporting leaders develop skills for uncertainty\, including navigating towards shared goals\, building cultures of experimentation\, and creating the conditions for innovation to take root inside large\, complex organisations.\n\n\n\n\nYou’ll leave with:\n\n\n\n\nA clear-eyed view of where your engagement strategy is breaking down and at least one concrete fix you can act on immediately. \n\n\n\nA better understanding of how to transform organisational complexity from a blocker into a source of innovation and business opportunity.\n\n\n\n\nIf your organisation is serious about turning ambition into action\, this is where to start. \n\n\n\nWho is the session for:\n\n\n\nThis session is for sustainability practitioners working in large companies who are responsible for sustainability training initiatives and ESG/NetZero strategy design.  The session will also be relevant to other functions that engage with or run effective sustainability training programmes\, including L&D and HR\, the Greater London Authority and the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry. \n\n\n\nThis session is hosted by The Collaborative for Systemic Climate Action and presented by Kite Insights and Climate KIC. It is part of the Green Skills Festival\, a London Climate Action Week-affiliated initiative. Read more about the Festival below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the organisers\n\n\n\nThe Collaborative for Systemic Climate Action is a unique alliance of 27 globally active implementing partners and trusted funding partners resourcing the bold systemic action this moment demands. We have made an intentional commitment to overcome the fragmentation and competition that all too often undermine climate action by working together\, pooling resources and reimagining how solutions are designed\, financed and delivered. Kite Insights and Climate KIC are members of the Collaborative. \n\n\n\nThe largest innovation agency in Europe\, Climate KIC bridges the private and public sector green skills gap by combining technical expertise (e.g. renewable energy\, carbon accounting) with transversal leadership skills (e.g.\, systems thinking\, collaboration). The Academy is Climate KIC’s flagship learning program for the public and private sector. \n\n\n\nKite Insights empowers organizations to articulate their stance\, activate teams from ground-up\, and foster meaningful\, sustained climate action. Blending strategic research and thought leadership\, their methodology leverages AI and focuses on understanding\, motivation\, and capabilities across roles and sectors.  \n\n\n\nAbout the Green Skills Festival\n\n\n\nAs part of London Climate Action Week 2026\, Climate KIC and Kite Insights\, with The Collaborative for Systemic Climate Action and invited partners\, are convening the Green Skills Festival. A full day of conversations\, workshops and interactive sessions exploring the capabilities\, leadership\, collaboration and innovation needed to accelerate systems transformation. \n\n\n\nRooted in these partners’ collective belief that climate action requires radical collaboration across sectors\, disciplines and communities\, the festival brings together practitioners\, educators\, innovators\, community leaders and systems thinkers to share ideas\, challenge assumptions and explore practical pathways for change. \n\n\n\nThroughout the day\, participants will have the opportunity to engage with a diverse programme of sessions\, connect with peers\, and discover new approaches to navigating the complexity of climate transformation. \n\n\n\nRead more and register to all the events that are part of the Festival here.

SUMMARY:Investing in nature-positive futures: Innovation and place-based finance for bioeconomy and systems change
DESCRIPTION:The transition to a nature-positive economy cannot be driven by technological innovation and capital alone. It also depends on the social fabric that enables communities\, institutions and regions to innovate together. This workshop\, organised by Climate KIC and a partner event of the EU Green Week\, brings together three interdependent themes to explore how widely understood innovation becomes a catalyst for systemic change and mutually reinforcing transformation dynamics. \n\n\n\nFirst\, bioeconomy is a systemic opportunity and emerging industry with high potential to boost EU competitiveness. Moving beyond siloed sectors\, we examine how bio-based value chains can be redesigned at regional and landscape level\, integrating ecological regeneration with economic viability. Drawing on systems innovation experience as a form of social institution-building\, participants will explore how multi-actor coalitions shift the rules\, relationships and mental models that currently lock in unsustainable resource use\, forming the foundational layer for building new financial and innovation approaches. \n\n\n\nSecond\, Place-Based Finance Labs are an innovation instrument to deliver on topics such as the bioeconomy. We showcase how tailor-made financial mechanisms – co-designed with local governments\, communities and investors – unlock capital for nature-positive projects. These labs embody multilevel governance\, aligning EU policy frameworks with national programmes and sub-regional realities so that investments can flow where transformation is actually happening. \n\n\n\nThird\, innovation in its widest sense\, and as an expression of social capital. Through concrete impact stories\, we illustrate the full spectrum of innovation: technological\, business model\, social and policy – already benefiting nature\, people and the economy. Framed through multi-level perspectives on socio-technical transitions\, the stories demonstrate how place-based experiments\, supported by the right social networks and institutional conditions\, can challenge and reshape current systems\, thereby closing the loop between systemic opportunity (bioeconomy) and enabling mechanisms (finance and innovation)\, delivering real-world transformation. \n\n\n\nFormat & objectives\n\n\n\nThis workshop will bring together practitioners\, policymakers\, investors\, regional actors and innovators to explore how bioeconomy\, place-based finance and systems innovation can accelerate nature-positive transformation across Europe. \n\n\n\nThe event will also help inform our position to give feedback on Biotech Act I and as part of a submission to the upcoming call for evidence on Biotech Act II. Your contribution is fundamental to shaping policy in the right direction at European level. Join us and let your voice be heard! \n\n\n\nParticipants will:\n\n\n\n\nExplore bioeconomy as a systemic opportunity for EU competitiveness and regional regeneration.\n\n\n\nLearn how Place-Based Finance Labs can unlock capital for nature-positive projects.\n\n\n\nHear practical impact stories from technological\, social\, business model and policy innovation.\n\n\n\nIdentify governance\, investment and policy conditions needed to scale nature-positive innovation.\n\n\n\n\nThe event will be in a hybrid format\, allowing participation either in-person in our office in Bruxelles (details below) or online. \n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\nDenyse Julien\, Climate KIC\, Ireland’s Deep Demonstration for the transition to a climate-neutral agri-food sector\n\n\n\nNessa Noronha\, University College Dublin\, TRANSFORM project\n\n\n\nPiotr Jurga\, Institute of Soil Science and Plant Cultivation (IUNG-PIB)\, BIOEASTWIDE\n\n\n\nSeán Douglas\, BiOrbic\n\n\n\nDamien O’Reilly\, Irish Co-operative Organisation Society (ICOS)\n\n\n\nTamara Giltsoff\, Climate KIC\, Place Finance Lab initiative\n\n\n\nKirsten Dunlop\, CEO of Climate KIC\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n10:00 – 10:20 Opening and framing with Keynote from Dr. Kirsten Dunlop (CEO\, Climate KIC) \n\n\n\n10:20 – 10:45 Storytelling\, round one — How transformation begins \n\n\n\n10:45 – 11:30 Group discussion \n\n\n\n11:30 – 11:45 Storytelling\, round two — How transformation scales12:10 – 12:55 Group discussion \n\n\n\n12:55 – 13:00 Closing reflections and next steps \n\n\n\n13:00 Lunch & networking \n\n\n\nSeats are limited – Register below!

SUMMARY:Unlocking circular incentives: Hidden powers cities already have
DESCRIPTION:Cities and regions across Europe are attempting to implement circular economy strategies. Numerous businesses and organisations are offering solutions to support them. And yet progress is slow. \n\n\n\nWhy? Insights from CCRI communities of practice have highlighted the problem: using linear rules\, contracts and metrics to pursue circular outcomes. They’re potentially the right tools\, but cities and regions need to unlock and re-align them for circular change to really begin \n\n\n\nUnlocking Circular Incentives: The Hidden Power You Already Have is a hands-on online session about designing support measures for circular businesses that work in practice. The session includes real examples from Vienna and Hackney to spark discussion and exchange. \n\n\n\nIn just two hours\, you’ll learn to examine and diagnose needs\, processes and barriers so you can develop\, propose and implement practical adjustments to existing tools – without adding new funding streams. \n\n\n\nWho’s it for? \n\n\n\n\nAnyone already implementing circular strategies but facing challenges in delivery and uptake.\n\n\n\nCity and regional practitioners working on circular economy\, sustainability\, procurement\, waste management\, economic development\, or innovation.\n\n\n\nPublic officials involved in contracts\, budgeting\, programme design or setting KPIs.\n\n\n\nBusiness support organisations\, development agencies\, and circular hubs working with SMEs\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the CCRI communities of practice\n\n\n\nOver the past year\, CCRI (Circular Cities and Regions Initiative) communities of practice have brought practitioners together to openly share what works\, what doesn’t\, and where they get stuck. This CCRI online workshop series builds directly on these insights\, turning peer exchange into practical\, hands-on sessions designed to help you move from ambition to concrete actions – no matter where you are in your transition.  \n\n\n\nThe online workshops are coordinated by Climate KIC\, ICLEI\, Circular Flanders\, and DG RTD

SUMMARY:Building your regulatory intelligence system (and why investors care)
DESCRIPTION:Regulation is part of building in cleantech\, but it doesn’t have to be a blocker. The challenge is knowing which rules actually matter for your business\, and which ones are just distraction.  \n\n\n\nJoin Cleantech Regulatory Advisor\, Cinzia Alberti\, for a practical founder-focused masterclass on navigating European regulation as you scale your business. This session focuses on how to identify your real regulatory touchpoints\, prioritise market entry based on regulatory complexity\, and talk about regulation in a way that builds investor confidence.  \n\n\n\nWe’ll cover why regulatory strategy matters from both an operational and investor perspective\, how to avoid common mistakes that can set teams back 6–12 months\, and what investors actually want to hear when regulation comes up. You’ll also learn when it makes sense to handle things internally\, when to bring in external support\, and what that support looks like in practice\, illustrated with a real-world EU multi‑market expansion example.  \n\n\n\nThe masterclass includes a 30‑minute presentation followed by a 15‑minute interactive Q&A\, with space to bring your own questions and challenges.

SUMMARY:How to Evolve - Global book tour
DESCRIPTION:What if the strategies we rely on to tackle complex problems are actually making things worse? \n\n\n\nThat’s the central provocation of ‘How to Evolve’\, the new book by systems thinker and author Zaid Hassan. His argument is direct: in complex systems\, strategy-as-planning is not just ineffective – it’s a form of malpractice. Millions spent on workshops that produce documents\, not real change\, is a pattern too many of us recognise. \n\n\n\nThis is territory we know well. At Climate KIC\, we work in what we call the “messy middle” — the uncertain\, often unpredictable space between climate ambition and climate reality. We don’t believe you can plan your way through that space. You have to practice your way through it. Zaid’s work puts that conviction into sharp\, rigorous focus. We think it’s essential reading for anyone working in climate innovation\, systems change\, or public and private sector transformation. \n\n\n\nClimate KIC and Ten in Ten are proud to host the Copenhagen dates of Zaid’s global book tour. Across two days at BLOXHUB (Bryghuspladsen 8) there are three ways to engage with his work — from a full-day hands-on workshop to a public evening lecture and an intimate author dinner. \n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nStrategy & Anti-Strategy WorkshopMonday 11 May | 09:30–17:30 CETA full-day\, hands-on workshop with Zaid Hassan introducing participants to the practice of systemic action. Limited to 30 seats.DKK 3\,189.99 (standard) / DKK 1\,589.99 (student) \n\n\n\nHow to Evolve — Public LectureTuesday 12 May | 18:30–20:00 CETAn in-depth public talk and Q&A with Zaid Hassan on the core ideas from his new book.

SUMMARY:Insights: Green and digital. What it means for small businesses in practice 
DESCRIPTION:Join a new Community Insights session to discover how small businesses can increase competitiveness and resilience while navigating the green and digital transitions.\n\n\n\nSmall businesses are under pressure to both decarbonise and digitalise\, but doing both at once can feel overwhelming. What if going green and going digital could support each other? \n\n\n\nWorking on the “twin transition”\, combining green and digital strategies\, can help SMEs build resilience\, cut costs\, and future-proof their business. \n\n\n\nIn this new Community Insights session\, we will explore what the twin transition looks like in practice building on the insights from the recent study ‘Digital Transformation of European Micro-Businesses‘\, created in collaboration between Mastercard and Caribou. The research shows that many micro-businesses are still at an early stage of digital maturity and highlights that sustainability depends on digital readiness.  \n\n\n\nDuring the webinar we will unpack how digital and sustainability journeys intersect\, and what this means in practice for small businesses and those who support them.  \n\n\n\nWhat can you expect? \n\n\n\n\nKey insights from the study  \n\n\n\nPractical implications for micro-business support and programme design  \n\n\n\nA real-world case study\n\n\n\nInteractive discussion  \n\n\n\n\nThe study has been developed by Mastercard through its Strive EU programme – an initiative supporting small business growth and resilience across Europe – in collaboration with Caribou\, a global consultancy accelerating impact in the digital age. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLog in to RSVP for this event\n\n\n\nThis event is open to Climate KIC Community members only.

SUMMARY:Key insights and lessons for Nature-based Solutions and territorial planning in the EU
DESCRIPTION:What lessons can be learned from EU regions on design\, implementation\, governance and monitoring of nature-based solutions (NbS)? What are cross-regional insights on barriers and success factors for NbS? Which policy-relevant recommendations can be drawn? Join this practical workshop co-organised by Climate KIC as part of the ReAdapt project and get insights for your territorial planning. \n\n\n\nThe ReAdapt Sensemaking Workshop aims to address these questions. It brings together EU\, national\, and regional policymakers\, case study regions and ESPON representatives to distil shared lessons for stronger NbS implementation across Europe. These lessons will directly feed into the ReAdapt Policy Guidance Toolkit\, which offers policy guidelines throughout the NbS policy cycle (Problem identification & scoping\, Planning & design\, Financing\, Implementation and Monitoring). \n\n\n\nDuring this interactive workshop\, we will: \n\n\n\n\nGather insights for the ReAdapt Policy Guidance Toolkit\n\n\n\nPresent ReAdapt results so far: the Knowledge repository\, Climate risk maps\, cross-regional lessons and Policy Guidance Toolkit\n\n\n\nExplore cross-regional insights on barriers and success factors for NbS\n\n\n\nReflect on NbS design\, implementation\, governance\, financing\, and monitoring\n\n\n\nTranslate local experiences into policy-relevant recommendations\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout ReAdapt\n\n\n\nESPON ReAdapt (Re-Naturing Territorial Development for Climate Risk Adaptation I 2024-2026) aims to strengthen local and regional climate adaptation in the EU by integrating NbS into governance. Despite their effectiveness\, NbS face challenges such as fragmented knowledge\, limited data and lack of clear policy recommendations. ReAdapt addresses these issues by developing a knowledge repository\, spatial climate risk visualizations\, gathering best practices from eight case studies\, and developing a Policy Guidance Toolkit.

SUMMARY:SILP Learning Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Systems Innovation Learning Partnership\, a collaboration between the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) and Climate KIC\, is back with a new edition of the Learning Festival. \n\n\n\nThe Learning Festival is an invitation to pause\, learn together and make sense of reality without collapsing into urgency\, oversimplification or performance. \n\n\n\nAcross three days\, we’ll explore how narratives\, funding practices and collective learning shape what becomes possible in complex systems.To help us process reality in all it’s heaviness\, we’re inviting a comedian to accompany us in the festival to remind us that humour can be the most honest form of being with such harsh realities. \n\n\n\nDay 1: Climate narratives in action: Attention\, trust\, and imagining alternative futures\n\n\n\nTuesday 10th March 10-12.30 CET \n\n\n\nWith backtracking climate commitments\, shrinking budgets and shifting geopolitical tensions\, it can feel so difficult to reach the people needed for meaningful\, global climate action. \n\n\n\nYet climate narratives continue to travel through mainstream routes like Hollywood and through quieter\, less obvious pathways like choirs\, communities and culture. \n\n\n\nDay 1 invites you into a kaleidoscopic exploration of climate narratives: where they come from\, how they shape attention and trust\, and how they open (or close) our ability to imagine alternative futures. \n\n\n\nWith conversation partners from diverse spaces\, we’ll explore how different forms of storytelling and inherited narratives are being used to: \n\n\n\n\nCapture attention\n\n\n\nShape attitudes and behaviour\n\n\n\nIllustrate possible futures\n\n\n\nCreate momentum for climate action\n\n\n\n\nThis is a space to pause the churn of urgency\, question what stories are doing in the world\, and reflect on the responsibility we carry in the narratives we amplify. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE\n\n\n\n\nDay 2: In-between Spaces: Intermediaries rethinking funding practices\n\n\n\nWednesday 11th March 10-12.30 CETIf you’re holding relationships that don’t neatly align\, translating between languages that don’t quite match\, expected to deliver certainty in situations defined by uncertainty. Accountable to multiple worlds of funders\, communities\, institutions all with different incentives\, timelines\, and definitions of success. \n\n\n\nThis is the work of being in-between. \n\n\n\nDay 2 marks the launch of the Rethinking Intermediaries Series report — a learning paper emerging from shared inquiry with intermediary funders and ecosystem support organisations navigating this in-between space. \n\n\n\nTogether\, we’ll explore live examples of experimental practice spaces in funding and relational work\, opening honest conversations about: \n\n\n\n\nThe challenges of working across worlds\n\n\n\nWhat experimentation looks like in practice\n\n\n\nHow intermediaries are finding new ways to work with complexity\n\n\n\n\nThis day is designed as a learning space… not to resolve tension but to understand it more deeply. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER HERE\n\n\n\n\nDay 3: Systems Innovation Learning Horizons (Closed Group)\n\n\n\nThursday 12th March 10.00-13.00 CET \n\n\n\nThe 2026 SILP Learning Festival will close the current lifecycle of the SILP programme. \n\n\n\nDay 3 will see an invitation-only gathering of some of Climate KIC’s closest partners and collaborators\, and some new friends\, come together in an intentional space to pause and reflect on what we are collectively learning about working in\, with\, and on complex systems. \n\n\n\nTogether\, we will: \n\n\n\n\nReflect on emerging insights from systems innovation practice\n\n\n\nShare live learning and challenges from our own work\n\n\n\nExplore the evolving landscape of systems innovation\n\n\n\nSurface collective needs and opportunities for future learning\n\n\n\n\nThis is a space for honest sense-making\, shared reflection and imagining what learning horizons might come next. \n\n\n\nIf you would like to be a part of this closed group\, please email jessamy.hardie@climate-kic.org (and cc will@orbitallearning.io)

SUMMARY:Connect: Reflections on 2025 & Optimism for 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we reflect on one of the most challenging years\, share key takeaways from COP30\, and explore how our community can drive climate innovation and collaboration in 2026. \n\n\n\n2025 has been a year of extremes. We’ve seen climate events redefine what “crisis” means\, youth-led protests on social conditions\, a mix of setbacks and promising progress in climate targets and ambitions. Against this backdrop\, national delegations reconvened at COP30 in Belém\, Brazil in an extremely fragmented and uncertain political landscape. \n\n\n\nNow\, as the year draws to a close\, it’s time to gather as a Community and discuss: what are the main lessons from 2025? And how can we turn the tensions of recent years – marked by fear and impatience – into sources of resilience and creativity for a more constructive 2026? \n\n\n\nWe’ll kick off with an honest and empowering conversation between Christiana Figueres\, key negotiator behind the 2015 Paris agreement\, and Kirsten Dunlop\, CEO of Climate KIC and one of the leading voices in the systems innovation ecosystem. Together\, they’ll reflect on the global climate landscape and explore pathways for meaningful action. \n\n\n\nNext\, we’ll share highlights from our Community and initiatives for 2026\, setting the stage for collaborations in the upcoming year. \n\n\n\nWhat can you expect? \n\n\n\n\nInsights and takeaways from COP30 Brazil and the defining moments of 2025.\n\n\n\nPriorities\, anticipations and opportunities in 2026.\n\n\n\nA networking space to share commitments and lay the groundwork for collaborations.\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\nChristiana Figueres\, Founding Partner of Global Optimism\, Chief Negotiator of the landmark Paris Agreement of 2015Christiana Figueres is an internationally recognized leader on climate action. In her position as Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) she steered the global diplomatic effort that culminated in the 2015 Paris Agreement. Today she is the co-founder of Global Optimism\, co-host of the podcast Outrage & Optimism and co-author of “The Future We Choose: Surviving the Climate Crisis”.\n\n\n\nKirsten Dunlop\, CEO of Climate KICA creative\, energetic and inspirational leader\, Dr. Kirsten Dunlop brings to her role a deep conviction in our capacity to learn and evolve into a climate-resilient society\, and her over 30 years of experience catalyzing systemic transformations in a career spanning academia\, consulting\, banking\, and the insurance industry\, across three continents.. As an expert communicator and enthusiast\, she is a sought-after speaker on systems innovation\, financial systems change and societal transformation in the context of climate.

SUMMARY:Policy Lab: Efficient\, Circular and Affordable Housing
DESCRIPTION:In cities and communities across the EU\, delivering affordable housing is an urgent social\, economic\, and political imperative. Meeting this demand requires solutions that are both cost- effective and future-proof. \n\n\n\nLeveraging the co-benefits of circular\, energy-efficient\, and climate-resilient housing – such as lower energy and maintenance costs\, greater insurability\, and reduced climate risks – can make homes more affordable in the long run and open the door to innovative\, collaborative\, and systemic solutions. \n\n\n\nTo this end\, the EU Cities Mission is engaging European businesses and industry to translate Mission Cities’ Action and Investment Plans into specific\, quantified\, aggregate demand for green materials and technologies\, infrastructure\, manufacturing\, logistics\, interoperable digital solutions\, and green business models. In this way\, we can accelerate the formation of European lead markets and enhance competitiveness through resilience to climate and economic shocks. \n\n\n\nEmploying an innovative policy impact lab approach\, in this session Climate KIC\, in partnership with the Huge Thing and IRMIR (Institute for the Development of Cities and Regions) will gather key representatives of the European built environment ecosystem – policy makers\, industry\, innovators\, local governments\, subject experts – to start addressing housing related (esp. in terms of renovation or new construction) issues in a practice-oriented way. These representatives will work on matching challenges with solutions\, identifying gaps\, and creating space for participants to acknowledge both opportunities and limitations\, to jointly explore ways and projects for moving forward. \n\n\n\n\n[Business models] In what areas are circularity and efficiency co-benefits of affordability? How can this potential be maximized?\n\n\n\n[Innovations] How can alternative and innovative approaches (like zero-emissions building sites\, offsite construction\, energy management innovations etc.)\, be integrated affordably?\n\n\n\n[Costs] What are the key cost drivers constraining the potential of building renovation / new constructions being delivered in affordable and sustainable ways\, and how can they be addressed?\n\n\n\n[Costs] To what extent can innovative financial instruments (e.g. guarantees\, subordinated debt\, pay-as-you-save models etc.) balance short-term feasibility with long-term sustainability?\n\n\n\n[Waste] In what ways might construction and demolition waste be transformed from a cost burden into a reliable source of secondary materials?\n\n\n\n[Waste] How might circular and low-carbon materials\, e.g. low-clinker cement or second-hand steel\, be more broadly adopted?\n\n\n\n[Regulation] What innovations in the EU’s policies (shaping and implementation) or standards can ease affordability concerns without sacrificing sustainability?\n\n\n\n[Data] How can data (governance and use)\, digitization and AI be harnessed to drive sustainability and affordability?\n\n\n\n[Skills] What are the key skills and capacities missing amongst both workers and companies. What kinds of partnerships or models are needed to bridge the gap swiftly – to be able to reap the competitiveness benefits from transforming and becoming innovative? \n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n13:00 – 13:30 Registration & Networking \n\n\n\n13:30 – 14:15  \n\n\n\nWelcome Remarks by the Organisers \n\n\n\n\nKatarzyna Bałucka-Dębska\, Head of Policy and EU Affairs\, Climate KIC\n\n\n\nMaryla Wojcieszek\, Vice-President and Co-Owner\, Huge Thing\n\n\n\n\nOpening Remarks:  \n\n\n\n\nData applied at neighbourhood level: The case of the Basque Region’s Building PassportAndoni Hidalgo\, Climate KIC / Basque Urban Agenda\, International Affairs AdvisorAnder Bilbao Figuero\, Ciclica\n\n\n\nOslo case – Public procurement leveraging lead markets creationPrzemysław Derwich & Paweł Kaczkan\, Climate KIC\n\n\n\nPolish case study\n\n\n\nViews from the marketRepresentatives from ROBYG SA & Vantage SA\n\n\n\n\n14:15 – 15:45 Lab-Style Discussions and Q&A \n\n\n\nParticipants will join lab-style\, solution-focused discussions designed to move beyond sequential remarks and problem definition\, encouraging practical exchange and co-creation of solutions.
