Science and society dialogues on climate services and innovation

Held online between 22-24 March, 2023, the first Climateurope2 virtual festival brought together innovators, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and experts in the climate and environmental sectors to showcase their solutions and discuss the challenges that the climate services community is facing today.

The webstival was the opportunity for attendees to learn about the latest advances and cutting-edge technologies in the climate services sector, to network with other professionals and foster collaboration, and to explore new ways to advance their work towards more useful, used and usable climate services.

A diverse range of speakers and domains were featured including renewable energy, sustainable food systems, climate-smart cities, and transformative climate risk assessments for regions and communities engaged in the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change.

With over 500 registered attendees and more than 65 keynote speakers, panellists, and moderators, the webstival succeeded in promoting synergies and knowledge sharing on climate innovation among actors in the climate services value chain.

In addition to Climateurope2, other significant European projects were invited to organise their own sessions to discuss exciting research topics and findings: ASPECT, CLIMAAX, REACHOUT, PROTECT, E-SHAPE, VITIGEOSS.

Climateurope2 would like to thank all participants, speakers, and sponsors for making this event possible, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration towards a more sustainable and resilient future.
