We need a model for collaboration for clean technology stakeholders that accelerates the major institutional, industrial and technological change that is required to achieve both climate goals and shared economic prosperity in the long-term, across the entire province. This type of activity happens best when a “cluster” of interconnected businesses both cooperates and competes – often referred to as “co-opetition”.
Our call to action is to engage all stakeholders in building Foresight BC’s Cleantech Cluster and form a stronger clean technology innovation ecosystem that accelerates the pace of innovation, gets new ideas to market faster and scales the cleantech industry.
“Now is the time when western Canadians must work together to tackle challenges and explore creative ideas for growth. We need to better connect with one another, as well as grow partnerships across Canada and the world.”
By 2030, Foresight BC and partners will create strong regional cleantech clusters that are driving the benefits of a clean economy for BC, Canada, and beyond. BC is already a global leader in key sectors and is known for rapidly building, scaling, and anchoring companies, and Foresight BC will continue to bring industry, government, academia, investors, and SMEs together to fuel the transition to a clean economy.
Our mission is to accelerate the growth and impact of cleantech ecosystems across Canada to achieve deep decarbonization and net-zero climate targets, and to position BC as a global centre for innovation, talent, and capital, to scale and fund Canadian cleantech solutions.
