Climate KIC (Knowledge and Innovation Community) is Europe’s foremost climate innovation initiative. We understand that keeping global temperature rise below 1.5˚C demands unprecedented change. It requires new social dynamics, ways of doing business, capital flows, policymaking, economic models, and new ways of living. That is why our mission is to leverage the power of systems innovation to transform whole places, industries and value chains by 2030, working across sectors to develop and scale ambitious, mission-led programmes. Climate KIC’s strategy 2024-2030, Transformation, with Urgency, is available here.

Climate KIC operates as a not-for-profit platform working through public-private partnership, wielding both public and private funding. Established in 2010 and headquartered in Amsterdam, we orchestrate a community of more than 150 organisations including large corporations and SMEs, municipal and regional governments, universities and research institutes, as well as non-governmental organisations and civil society actors.

We have historically managed €80-100 million per year in grants, provided by our founder and core funder, the European Institute for Innovation and Technology (EIT). As of 2025, Climate KIC operates as an emeritus member of the EIT Community, in addition to working with funding from the European Commission, multi-lateral funders, institutional funders, corporates, and philanthropic foundations. Our objective is to maintain a flow of funds of circa €100 million annually to our community and to challenge owners to deliver impact. Funders include SIDA, MunichRe, the African Development Bank, Governments of Ireland, Spain and Slovenia, Laudes Foundation, Good Energies, Facebook, Google Foundation. The Climate KIC Group is led by a Dutch charity status Foundation.

Climate KIC has a Remote-First strategy, where colleagues work remotely from home based in one of the countries where we have a branch or employing entity (and can work out of local offices or co-working seats, where they exist). We meet at our local offices to exchange and connect and use online collaboration tools to work with each other and with our community. On occasion, we meet in person as teams, and once per year as an organisation.

As a mission-driven organisation dedicated to climate transformation, we consider the climate impact of our own actions, for example travel, catering, or IT equipment.
