Through the network of EIT Climate-KIC; municipalities, cities and other public bodies can engage the local community together with entrepreneurs and businesses from all over the world to solve heavy weighing climate problems. By inviting different actors to collaborate in solving local challenges, one supports international climate friendly action and make new technology available for both people and organisations, thus taking a leap towards becoming a greener and more sustainable community.

Climathon is a 24 hour hackathon where people come together and solve climate change problems, either by contributing to existing ideas, or present brand new ones. A climathon can be hosted as a stand-alone event or one can cooperate with cities worldwide to take part in a global climathon.

Deep Demonstrations are the large-scale projects through which EIT Climate-KIC offer their ‘systems innovation as a service’ model to Europe’s most ambitious ‘challenge owners’ – i.e. the mayors, government ministries, industries and community leaders, and funders who have the means and mandate to tackle Europe’s biggest climate change challenges.
