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\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 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\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\nSeats are limited – Register below!

SUMMARY:Scaling up Bioeconomy solutions: From primary producers potential to pilot
DESCRIPTION:This training will provide participants with practical insights into the scale-up journey of bioeconomy innovations\, from early-stage concepts to pilot and demonstration phases. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of the technical\, strategic\, and policy-related aspects involved in successful upscaling. \n\n\n\nIn today’s transition towards more sustainable and circular business models\, scaling up bio-based solutions is essential to strengthen competitiveness\, foster innovation\, and unlock new opportunities for rural and regional development. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER NOW

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\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the organisers\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.

SUMMARY:The Emerging Civic Leadership Archetype
DESCRIPTION:There is a new generation of civic leadership emerging across the world. In their new playbook\, From Solutions to Adoption\, HERO analyzed over 180 civic-led wins across 30 countries to understand what it takes for citizen-led initiatives to move from proof of concept into law\, policy and institutions\, and what kinds of civic leadership make that happen in today’s polarised world. \n\n\n\nJoin us to discover evidence\, dive into a case study from a civic leader\, and participate in a frank panel conversation about what civic leadership needs to deliver at scale. \n\n\n\nWhat to expect:\n\n\n\n\nPatterns and insights from HERO’s Playbook on how citizen-led initiatives scale from pilot to systemic policy.\n\n\n\nA case study from Kalpana Arias on London’s Citizens’ Assemblies for Food and Nature\, where residents\, growers and organisers are shaping borough by borough proposals feeding into the Greater London Authority’s environmental plan.\n\n\n\nA panel discussion on the qualities\, skills and support this emerging generation of civic leaders needs\, and what that implies for funders\, city teams and think tanks.\n\n\n\n\nThis session is for you if you work in:\n\n\n\n\nCivic leadership on climate\, democracy or city-level change;\n\n\n\nFoundations\, city teams or intermediary organisations looking to embed participation and mobilisation in their climate work; or\n\n\n\nThink tanks connecting citizen-led initiatives with public policy.\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers and Panellists include:\n\n\n\n\nKalpana Arias\, GROW (Citizens’ Assemblies for Food and Nature\, London)\n\n\n\nSylvain Ferrière\, HERO\n\n\n\nAnthony Zacharzewski\, Democratic Society\n\n\n\nSolla Zophoniasdottir\, Climate KIC\n\n\n\nYiannis Chrysostomidis\, Reos Partners\n\n\n\n\nThis session is hosted by The Collaborative for Systemic Climate Action and presented by HERO \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. HERO\, Democratic Society and Climate KIC are members of the Collaborative. \n\n\n\nHERO is building a global infrastructure for civic leadership (supporting over 200 leaders in 30 countries through Circles)\, DemSoc helps governments and cities listen to people and involve them directly in climate decisions\, and both are partners in The Collaborative for Systemic Climate Action working together on the civic‑infrastructure part of that alliance – strengthening participation\, mobilisation and democratic processes as a core pillar of systemic climate action.

SUMMARY:Climate for All: Building Green Competences for a Resilient Europe
DESCRIPTION:Europe faces escalating climate challenges. Strengthening citizens’ capacity to respond is therefore no longer optional\, it is fundamental. We bring together policymakers\, educators\, civil society\, and innovators to explore how competence-based\, experiential learning can support a more climate-resilient Europe. \n\n\n\nThis event offers a concrete perspective on how Europe can move from climate awareness to climate competence\, and from competence to action. \n\n\n\nHosted at the Committee of the Regions in Brussels\, this high-level gathering marks the closing conference of Climate for All\, an Erasmus+ initiative (2023–2026) implemented across five European countries. The project has developed a practical\, scalable approach to building green competences through game-based learning\, aligned with the European GreenComp framework. \n\n\n\nParticipants will engage with both the strategic and practical dimensions of this work: from policy-level discussion with European institutions to hands-on experience with educational games and participatory methods that translate learning into local climate action. \n\n\n\nWhat to expect\n\n\n\n\nDialogue on Policy and Practice: A high-level panel featuring representatives from the European Commission\, regional authorities\, and civil society organisations\, examining how competence-based education can strengthen climate resilience across Europe.\n\n\n\nInteractive Game Showcase: A facilitated experiential coffee break\, where participants explore six original educational games designed to foster systems thinking\, critical thinking\, futures literacy\, and collective action.\n\n\n\nParticipatory Workshop: A structured\, hands-on session\, where participants connect gameplay insights to the GreenComp framework and collaboratively map concrete actions for local climate resilience.\n\n\n\nNetworking & Exchange: Opportunities to connect with policymakers\, practitioners\, and innovators working at the intersection of education\, sustainability\, and civic engagement.\n\n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n08:30–09:00 – Arrival & Registration09:00–09:20 – Opening and Introduction to the project09:20–10:20 – High-Level Panel: “Building Climate-Resilient Citizens Through Competence-Based Learning”10:20–10:50 – Experiential Coffee Break & Game Showcase10:50–11:45 – Participatory Workshop: “Climate for All in Practice”11:45–12:00 – Closing Reflections & Next Steps \n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\nSophia Queckenberg\, European Commission\, DG EAC\n\n\n\nMonica Pisani\, European Commission\, DG CLIMA\n\n\n\nIoannis Anastasakis\, Region of Crete\n\n\n\nLaura McDermott\, Colectivo\n\n\n\nPatrycja Gas-Janczukowicz\, Nausika Foundation\n\n\n\nModerated by Antonios Triantafyllakis\, All for Climate ASBL\n\n\n\n\nGames presented\n\n\n\n\nSpirit Path (LARP on collective action\, systems thinking)\n\n\n\nEchoes of Gaia (storytelling card game for nature appreciation & exploratory thinking)\n\n\n\nGREENWASH!
