Chinese internet and technology company Tencent has announced it is launching a digital community platform that seeks to connect and empower green-tech change agents in the fight against climate change according to Smartcitiesworld.
The global launch of TanLive at the upcoming Cop28 event will be undertaken in collaboration with the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition, a group of like-minded climate actors that seek to drive the growth of the climate technology ecosystem.
Designed to connect and empower organisations working toward carbon neutrality, TanLive offers collaborative tools including community networking, project listings, and an ecosystem of vetted technological and financing solutions for entrepreneurs, investors, and research institutions in the climate sector.
The digital platform was originally launched by Tencent in China last year. Through TanLive’s worldwide availability, and the addition of new features designed in collaboration with the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition, Tencent hopes to foster a global community of green technology innovators and like-minded partners.
A collaborative effort between Masdar City, Tencent, and Catalyst as anchor partners, the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition aims to identify and magnify ongoing and future initiatives to accelerate the growth of climate technologies and create ecosystems that support their development.
