Lift 2016 presentation by Daniel Kaplan (Fing / Transitions²) "The ecological transition has a goal, but not the path to get there. The digital transition transforms everything, but knows not into what. Each one needs the other!"

1. The ecological transition has a goal, but not the path to get there.
The digital transition transforms everything, but knows not into what.
Each one needs the other!

Factor 4 Innovation Act Local
Open Models for
Sustainability
What if innovation was the key
to unlocking a sustainable
future? How would it change
environmental issues, and how
would such a goal change
innovation itself?
What if digital tools and
methods became the engines
of local ecological transitions,
empowering their
stakeholders, facilitating
participation, networking and
scaling projects?
What if open economic models
were key to solving
environmental issues ? What
would it take?
Breathe your City Active Mobilities Also, in 2016…
What if bottom-up
collaboration, entrepreneurial
innovation, and public
intervention, improved
knowledge as well as action on
the link between pollution and
health?
What if cycling became the
focus of innovative services
and uses, contributing to
sustainability as well as job
creation?
IT'S ON YOU!
