The CSCP Partners Up with X-Creation to Accelerate Sustainable Innovation Climate change, biodiversity loss, inequalities within and among countries – these are only a few of the challenges that the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim to tackle. However, achieving the 17 ambitious goals requires bold and immediate action. We are happy to announce our partnership with X-Creation to connect and collaborate toward addressing current critical challenges aligned with the SDGs. X-Creation is a curated community and service that accelerates sustainable innovation. By connecting and facilitating a tightly curated and highly diverse group of practitioners from companies, scientific institutions, non-profits, and public organisations, X-Creation enables the co-creation of sustainable innovations and provides a fast track to implement and scale technological, financial, and economic solutions through partnerships and access to public and private funding. The CSCP will join the X-Creation events in 2024 and will be involved in the Strategic Innovation Workshops of the UN Climate Change Global Innovation Hub (UGIH). Our diverse team of experts in areas such as Products & Services, Cities & Infrastructure, Policy, Lifestyles & Behaviour, and Businesses & Entrepreneurship will contribute their know-how as well as engage with experts and key actors in all co-creation processes. “Radical and holistic innovations are more needed than ever. The multitude of challenges we face and the rapid pace of developments around us require smart, powerful, and creative solutions that are brought to life through collaboration. As a Think and Do tank that has collaboration at its heart, the CSCP will engage with X-Creation to identify and leverage new synergies in using digital enablers such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) for greater social and environmental sustainability”, shares Michael Kuhndt, CSCP Executive Director. The X-Creation events kicked-off with the three pop-up Inspiration Studios in March 2024, looking to explore and co-create meaningful solutions for the X-Creation’s 2024 Challenges. On behalf of the CSCP, Michael Kuhndt attended the event on the Challenge “Training ESG Skills With the help of AI”, while Janna Prager joined the roundtable “Digital Collaboration for SMEs: Advancing the Circular Economy”. X-Creation was founded by T -Systems in 2023 and aims to provide a process and ecosystem for co-creating and scaling sustainable digital innovations that address the most pressing challenges of our time. The CSCP is an X-Creation partner. For additional information and to join the platform, please take a closer look at the X-Creation Inspiration Studios.
