We’ve got a winner for the Open2Horizon challenge #Biodiversity!

RESPONSE project allows startups to support Dijon Métropole in its carbon neutrality strategy and get the city’s residents involved in reducing CO2 emissions. Through the Open2Horizon Challenge programme, the Dijon area becomes a real ‘testing ground’ for innovative solutions (start-ups and SMEs) that can then be deployed on a large scale.

Natural Solutions has been chosen for the Biodiversity Open2Horizon Challenge to propose a solution to the following problem:

How can we monitor biodiversity on an area-wide scale to meet the strategic objectives of the territorial climate, air and energy plan, which includes a biodiversity component and covers all nature-based solutions?

Since 2008, Natural Solutions has been supporting biodiversity stakeholders in their projects to put the right technology at the service of their missions. Natural Solutions is working on Ecoteka, an open-source platform designed to facilitate the integration of natural issues into territorial policies and the economic development of companies.

During the development period, Natural Solutions will strengthen and simplify the publication of biodiversity indicators. The new set of indicators, developed for the territory of Dijon métropole, aims to produce a set of indicators of pressure, state and response adapted to the urban context of today and to the making of the city of tomorrow.

Natural Solutions will now enter the prototyping phase to create a useful solution for March 2025. To this end, they will be provided with access to exclusive data from Dijon métropole. The solution will be tested and improved up to June 2025 with the Dijon métropole municipality teams to achieve the best result.

Meet the winner of the Mobility Open2Horizon Challenge 2

RESPONSE project allows startups to support Dijon métropole in its carbon neutrality strategy and get the city’s residents involved in reducing CO2 emissions.
Through the Open2Horizon Challenge programme, the Dijon area becomes a real ‘testing ground’ for innovative solutions (start-ups and SMEs) that can then be deployed on a large scale.

Mobility Metrix has been chosen for the Mobility Open2Horizon Challenge 2 to propose a solution to the following problem:

How can we model active mobility flows on the scale of Dijon métropole?

Mobility Metrix is a platform for visualizing and analyzing mobility. It cross-references billions of data points and then, using artificial intelligence, offers a reliable and comprehensive view of mobility, modal shares, origin-destination flows and travel times in a given area to guide decisions, based on real mobility data for all modes of transport: car, public transport, bicycle, walking, etc., monitor the impact of these decisions, help reduce the sector’s GHG emissions.

Mobility Metrix will now enter the prototyping phase to create a useful solution for March 2025. To this end, they will be provided with access to exclusive data from Dijon métropole. The solution will be tested and improved up to June 2025 with the Dijon métropole municipality teams to achieve the best result.
