Students complete Climate-KIC executive education course

Participants from across Europe have finished Climate-KIC’s first executive education course in London, UK, following earlier workshops in Copenhagen, Denmark, Paris, France, and Rotterdam and Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

In this pilot series of four workshops, 25 participants were challenged to integrate the technological and commercial expertise in the private sector with that of the public sector. The course focuses on sustainable cities.

After an introduction to transition management and some best practice examples in Amsterdam and Rotterdam, the participants met again in Copenhagen to gain insights in the topic of value proposition. The programme in Paris focused on target markets.

Climate-KIC’s executive course aims to help European businesses understand and create integrated and climate-friendly urban solutions for a global market. Facilitated by coach Nicola Millson, the participants had to bring their own challenges to the table in order to find solutions for smart and sustainable cities.
