TanLIVE digital platform seeks to connect and empower green-tech change agents in the fight against climate change

Tencent, the world-leading internet and technology company, today announced that it will hold the global launch of TanLIVE, its climate community platform, at the upcoming COP28, the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference.

Designed to connect and empower organizations working toward carbon neutrality, TanLIVE offers collaborative tools including community networking, project listings, and an ecosystem of vetted technological and financing solutions for entrepreneurs, investors, and research institutions in the climate sector. The digital platform was originally launched by Tencent in China last year. Through TanLIVE’s worldwide availability, and the addition of new features designed in collaboration with the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition, Tencent hopes to foster a global community of green technology innovators and like-minded partners.

Connecting Global Climate Experts at COP28

Taking place in the UAE in November 2023, COP 28 is a pivotal opportunity for transformative climate action, which will see global leaders come together to negotiate further action on key issues such as climate change mitigation, adaptation, and finance.

At COP28, Tencent will showcase its dedication to climate solutions through TanLIVE, the first initiative of the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition. A collaborative effort between Masdar City, Tencent, and Catalyst as anchor partners, the coalition aims to identify and magnify ongoing and future initiatives to accelerate the growth of climate technologies and create ecosystems that support their development.

In addition to these anchor partners, a diverse group of climate technology stakeholders from around the world have joined the coalition as knowledge, program or roll-out partners to create an inclusive environment for collaboration to advance climate solutions. The coalition will also build upon the success of Masdar City’s Innovate, launched in 2021 to support startups and showcase their work.

Innovate for Climate Tech will carry on its legacy beyond the two-week conference by initiating ongoing initiatives and expanding its network. Interested entities are welcome to contact the coalition at partnerships@innovateforclimatetech.org and innovation@cop28.com.

“We’re proud to launch TanLIVE globally, as we strive to drive changes toward a low-carbon society," said Dr. Hao Xu, Vice President of Tencent Sustainable Social Value (SSV) and Head of Tencent Carbon Neutrality Lab. “By making the platform accessible worldwide and partnering with the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition with the support of COP28, we hope to accelerate the speed and scale of frontier technologies and connect like-minded individuals and organizations who are all working for the same goal: a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable future.”

Since launching last year, TanLIVE has already established partnerships with many local and international organizations. This includes major institutional users such as Impact Hub Shanghai, New Energy Nexus, Plug & Play China, C Team, Meituan Qingshan Project and more. The broad network of members demonstrates Tencent’s role in assembling a global community committed to driving climate action through collaboration. As the network expands further, TanLIVE looks forward to welcoming additional key players with shared urgent goals.

Digital Tools to Connect the Global Climate Movement

Built on Tencent’s various technology solutions including Tencent EnerLink, TanLIVE offers a suite of innovative features to empower the global climate community and its global user base.

Its Programs feature provides the easy publishing, search, and subscription of climate tech supporting resources such as grand challenges, incubators, workshops and industry expo, enhancing the transparency and exchange of these resources. The Knowledge section is an open-source portal for sharing climate-related insights and best-practices in a reader-friendly format, fostering informed action. Through Solutions, climate innovators showcase climate technologies, bridging innovators, adopters and investors. Meanwhile, Tools consolidates critical data and analytics from partners, providing actionable insights. By offering these features at an international scale, the digital platform aims to streamline collaboration, aggregate learnings, and maximize climate action on a global level.

碳LIVE数字平台致力于连接并赋能绿色科技变革者，与业界携手应对全球气候变化挑战

腾讯集团11月9日宣布，将在即将到来的2023年《联合国气候变化框架公约》第28次缔约方大会（以下简称“COP28”）上发布低碳社群平台“碳LIVE”国际版。碳LIVE平台将成为“全球低碳创新联盟”（Innovate for Climate Tech）的官方支持平台。全球低碳创新联盟由COP28促成，集结了全球气候领域内的创新者和践行者，共同推动气候科技生态的发展。

碳LIVE旨在连接和赋能碳中和领域的个人和组织，打破低碳领域的信息壁垒，并为他们提供一系列协作工具，包括社群网络、项目清单，以及为气候领域的创业者、投资者和研究机构提供可靠的技术和金融解决方案等。碳LIVE于2022年在中国首次推出中文版。此次碳LIVE与全球低碳创新联盟共同设计了面向全球受众的新功能，希望为绿色科技创新者和同行者搭建一个全球社群。

在COP28连接全球气候领域的顶尖专家

COP28即将于2023年11月在阿联酋举行。这是一次气候领域的重要谈判和变革机会，届时全球领导者将汇聚一堂，就气候变化的缓解、适应和融资等关键问题进一步商谈和行动。

腾讯公司将出席COP28，碳LIVE平台展现了腾讯对气候解决方案的思考和承诺，这也是全球低碳创新联盟成立以来的首个倡议和落地实践。该联盟在腾讯、马斯达尔城（Masdar City）和Catalyst等主要合作伙伴的共同努力下推动成立，联盟将致力于支持气候相关领域的创新，加强全球气候生态系统的搭建。

除了这些主要合作伙伴外，来自世界各地的气候技术相关方也将贡献资源、低碳项目，并以合作伙伴的身份加入联盟，共创包容的合作环境，推进气候解决方案。联盟还将借鉴马斯达尔城2021年推出的Innovate项目的成功经验，为初创企业提供支持并展示他们的工作成果。

在为期两周的COP28大会前后，全球低碳创新联盟将持续发起倡议并扩大其伙伴网络。欢迎感兴趣的机构发送邮件至partnerships@innovateforclimatetech.org或innovation@cop28.com了解更多信息。

腾讯可持续社会价值副总裁、腾讯碳中和实验室负责人许浩表示：“作为我们努力推动社会低碳转型的行动之一，我们很自豪能够将碳LIVE推向全球。通过在全球范围内开放碳LIVE且在COP28的支持下与全球低碳创新联盟合作，我们希望能加速探索前沿科技的发展速度和规模，与志同道合的个人与组织共同迈向更绿色、更洁净、更可持续的未来。”

自从去年推出碳LIVE以来，平台已经与许多本地和国际组织建立了合作伙伴关系，包括Impact Hub Shanghai、New Energy Nexus、璞跃中国、大道应对气候变化促进中心、美团青山等机构。这些用户体现了腾讯正连接起全球低碳社群，共同推动气候行动。随着碳LIVE进一步扩展，平台期待更多低碳的同路人参与进来。

连接全球气候行动的数字工具

碳LIVE平台的开发基于腾讯的核心技术解决方案，包括此前推出的腾讯智慧能源连接器等，这些技术将为全球气候社群及世界各地的低碳用户提供最便捷和创新的功能。

碳LIVE中的“资源星球”版块支持用户快速发布、搜索和订阅气候科技的相关资源，例如挑战赛、孵化器、工作坊和行业博览会等，增强了这些资源的透明度和流通度。“行动图谱”版块是一个开源门户，以简单直观的形式分享与气候相关的见解和最佳实践，帮助用户进行决策。气候创新者可以通过“产品技术”版块展示气候技术，连接创新者、用户和投资方。与此同时，“工具实验室”整合了来自合作伙伴的低碳领域数据和分析工具，为低碳行动提供洞察。这些功能已向国际社会开放，旨在加速不同领域、不同国家的伙伴形成合作，汇集知识，在全球范围内促进气候行动落地。

碳LIVE正逐步面向全球各区域上线，现在正是加入的绝佳时机，欢迎您参与推动全球的碳中和进程。如需了解更多信息，敬请访问tanlive.com，获得早鸟通道——您可在此注册组织、获取协作工具、寻找合作伙伴，加速碳中和进程。
