EIT Climate-KIC Launches ‘Investing for 1.5C’ Initiative

EIT Climate-KIC has launched a new initiative called ‘Investing for 1.5C’ in support of the implementation of the European Green Deal.

The KIC will lead the initiative and provide partner investment funds with strategic guidance, climate impact advice and portfolio-shaping support. At the same time, UnaTerra and Ship2B Ventures will provide expertise on particular sectors, geography, or stages of development. By working collaboratively with a shared vision for impact, the initiative aims to unlock new possibilities for the exchange of knowledge, insights, and learnings on how to enable catalytic and transformative innovation.

Investing for 1.5C includes the creation of investment opportunities through the ClimAccelerator programme, as well as impact guidance from the EIT Climate-KIC network.

Importantly, these two investment funds join the EIT Climate-KIC community and provide further momentum to the implementation of the European Green Deal and Horizon Europe Missions.

Further details will be announced in due course on the KIC website.
