Climate-KIC Australia

Climate-KIC Australia is a public-private innovation partnership aimed at finding solutions for climate mitigation and adaptation. It is a new type of entity to catalyse change: building networks, linking ideas, commercial know-how and investment capital to transform the way Australia responds to climate change.  Climate-KIC Australia’s partners are: the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage, the South Australian Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources, the Victorian Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning, Suncorp Group, EnergyLab, South Pole Group, Wattwatchers, WWF Australia, the University of Adelaide, Curtin University, the University of Melbourne and the University of Technology Sydney. Climate-KIC Australia is based on and works in collaboration with the successful European EIT Climate-KIC model, which was established six years ago by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union.
