Venture Café Berlin

Can the urgency of a landscape actually catalyse material innovation?

And does that count as urban innovation? Or what is the extent of urban innovation?

Last Thursday Tunca Beril Basaran spoke on a panel at Venture Café Berlin, right after the Urban Innovation Forum by Climate Tech Hub e.V., representing the founder's perspective at the intersection of climate tech, materials science, and the built environment. From CosmoLabs Research & Design Initiative to CarboSlag, this is the work she brings to these conversations.

The stage was shared with Lou Kest (Berlin Innovation Agency (BIA) Agency), Katia Alarcón Ruiz (ICLEI Europe), and Anastasia Sukhoroslova (All Things Urban) moderating with such care.

Where do you see the biggest disconnect between what startups build and what cities actually need?

Thank you Ewa Emilia Geresz, Milosz Lindner and the whole team for the invitation looking forward to continuing this at CIC Berlin!
