The objective of BRIGAID is to provide innovators with guidance to develop testing plans which increase the TRL of an innovation and its potential for market uptake.

The Climate Innovation Window not only presents the innovations developed under the umbrella of BRIGAID, furthermore it shows the benefits of the BRIGAID integrated framework which strives to provide standards and become the quality label for climate adaptation and structural reduction of climate-related disaster impacts in Europe and beyond.

This framework evaluates the effectiveness of innovations, e.g. by generating key technical performance indicators and accurate test reporting, and the organizational and governance requirements whilst providing a business development and financing model for climate adaptation innovations, e.g. by taking into consideration user experiences and social acceptance.

Advancing the technical, social and market readiness of innovations simultaneously

This metric is used to assess the maturity of a technology.

BRIGAID is a 4 year project (2016-2020) funded by European Union under Horizon 2020 programme which aims to effectively bridge the gap between innovators and end-users in resilience to floods, droughts and extreme weather.

The Brigaid Project

Our goal is to advance the technical, social and market readiness of innovations simultaneously.

This smoothens the development path, because technical, social and market requirements can be incorporated in the design, business model and market approach early on.

Quality label

BRIGAID aims to become the quality label for the development of innovations for climate adaptation and risk reduction from climate-related disaster impacts in Europe and beyond.
