Bringing innovative climate preparedness and resilience solutions closer to the market is sponsored by European Commission — Horizon Europe. Expected Outcome: In direct support of the upcoming European Integrated Framework for Climate Resilience, the successful project is expected to address all of the following outcomes: Climate preparedness and resilience innovative solutions, including Nature-Based solutions, advance in their investment journey and get closer to the market, strengthening the competitiveness of the companies and organisations developing them. Public authorities are mobilised to stimulate demand for climate adaptation solutions, thereby contributing to the development and maturity of the European resilience market. Structural and operational bottlenecks to the deployment of climate resilience solutions are identified, along with good practices, and policy-relevant insights are derived from lessons learned. Scope: Rationale Preparedness to current and future climate change is increasingly recognised as a driver of innovation and an emerging economic opportunity. The growing impacts of climate change are accelerating demand for technologies, services, practices and solutions that enable societies and economies to anticipate and manage climate risks. Already in 2021, the EU Adaptation Strategy highlighted the importance of scaling such solutions in order to strengthen resilience across economic sectors and regions. Moreover, the 2025 Preparedness Union Strategy outlines the link between climate security and the need for stronger public-private cooperation as a critical pillar of the EU’s preparedness. As climate change and its cascading impacts intensify - through heatwaves, floods, droughts, ecosystem and supply-chain disruptions - the ability of industries, societies and economies to anticipate, adapt, and respond is becoming a decisive factor in security, strategic autonomy, productivity, investment attractiveness, and long-term growth. Climate resilience technologies are key to strengthen Europe’s strategic autonomy. By anticipating climate impacts and embedding resilience into for example industrial, agricultural, maritime and forest-based, civil security, health, mobility and urban systems, Europe has the unique opportunity to reduce exposure to external shocks and reinforce the reliability of its internal market, in increasingly uncertain geopolitical times. Nature-based solutions have notably been identified as promising but there is a need to support their scaling up. While EU research and innovation programmes have generated a substantial portfolio of climate adaptation solutions, a persistent gap remains between successful research outcomes and their wider deployment in economic sectors. Many promising solutions remain at demonstration stage and struggle to reach broader adoption due to fragmented demand, limited opportunities for real-world testing and insufficient connections between innovators and potential public and private buyers and users. The project will address the lack of a coherent, EU-level pathway for scaling climate resilience solutions across all relevant economic sectors, which currently leads to underexploited innovation potential. By taking a business-focused approach, it aims to strengthen competitiveness, enable cross-sector replication, and help embed climate resilience by design across the European economy, acting as a bridge between Horizon Europe, the future FP10 and the European Competitiveness Fund. Activities of the project The proposals should address all the following aspects: Services provided by the central consortium Proposals should develop a common framework of intervention, setting-up the blueprint for the financial support to businesses and projects provided in form of financial support to third parties. Recognising that many climate preparedness and resilience solutions address public needs, the project is expected to engage with and leverage privileged access to public authorities, including those directly involved in various EU initiatives (such as the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change and o
