The Wrocław Research Centre EIT+ is a corporate partner which consists of six European regions co-operating with a consortium of five leading European universities including Imperial College (London) and ETH (Zurich) as well as big companies, ten leaders in the area of innovation, inter alia, CISCO, Shell, Thales or Bayer.

The whole Climate KIC team is to act in order to elaborate and implement crucial solutions concerning climate. The aforementioned six regions of the EU, cooperating over the last year, have created a consortium of regions under the name of the Regional Innovation Implementation Community. The members of the RIC are Lower Silesia, Emilia Romagna, Hessia, Central Hungary, Valencia, and West Midlands.

Each of the regions assembled together in the RIC, is based at its own leading universities, companies and local authorities. The solution has been elaborated over the last year as a result of negotiations between two independent consortiums which prepared for participation in the EIT competition on Climate-KIC.

One of them is a very powerful academic and industrial consortium which has cooperated for many years and is organizationally supported by Mc Kinsey. The other one - a regional consortium which EIT+ was invited to, was organized by Advanced West-Midlands. It is a visible example of constructive and synergic co-operation of previously competing teams.
