Economic Development

A new economic growth engine.

The Climate Tech Supercluster is dedicated to accelerating and activating an ecosystem that can support an unprecedented demand for climate technology. Failing to address climate change not only has dire global repercussions but also severe economic consequences. Inaction could result in losses of up to 22% of cumulative global GDP by 2100.

But we don’t just want to mitigate the risks. We also see there’s an opportunity to proactively build a new economic growth engine for Europe.

The green economy holds the promise of job creation and economic growth, with an estimated global market opportunity of £1 trillion for British businesses by 2030 and potential for 480,000 new jobs in the UK alone. Similar trends are observed across Belgium, France, Germany and the Netherlands.

To realise this, the Climate Tech SuperCluster fosters collaboration and shares expertise in building and accelerating climate tech innovation communities at city, regional, national and international scale

By accelerating supply and demand dynamics, we boost growth, productivity and adoption to support the transition to net-zero. Together, we provide the framework to nurture innovators, accelerate climate tech and supercharge market development. We bring together the whole climate ecosystem to build markets of scale, drive investment, real-world deployment and economic growth. Creating a larger, more diverse market for efficient, cost-effective solutions to drive climate action and make the climate transition more affordable and accessible.

From hosting round tables to undertaking analysis of economic impact, informing infrastructure investment decisions to advocating for a supportive policy environment, we can propel our members - and Europe - to global leadership in green technologies and solutions.
