The project
Life IRIS project (September 2015 – March 2019) aims at supporting SMEs in becoming more resilient to climate change, by mean of adaptation measures.
Identification and implementation of measures will be carried out through a “cluster” approach, when cluster means:
group of business located in a same productive area
group of business related one another through the same supply chain (beer supply chain)
First type of experimentation will be tested on 2 productive areas in Emilia-Romagna, both managed by a unique park manager: SIPRO and CAP, which are partner of IRIS. For the supply chain experimentation, Carlsberg Italia has been involved: it is the 3rd brewer in Italy and its supply chain has a worldwide relevance.
Assess the vulnerability and measure the resilience of your company to climate change.
