About us
For urban risk managers wanting to invest in climate resilience and well-being where it matters most, BitaGreen offers a SaaS and data management system to design those blue-green infrastructure scenarios and nature-based solutions that are best for people and nature. While many cities have ad-hoc project on blue-green infrastructure for climate resilience and resident wellbeing, they lack tools to locate, plan and invest at scale. At the same time real estate developer, managers and insurance companies cannot easily engage with the surrounding of their assets when assessing climate proofing. It is BitaGreen’s mission to change this. Our mapping, modelling and monitoring tools allow to analyse multiple impacts of urban blue-green infrastructure and prioritize those projects with highest impact. By showing the distribution of costs and benefits, our tools support the structuring of blended investment with multiple RoI. Our SaaS BGI builder and BGI monitor allows cities to • Map green assurance solutions at different scale, showing the impact of blue-green infrastructure on flood and drought risk, air quality, noise, biodiversity, carbon sequestration and general wellbeing. • Quantitatively assess costs and benefits to create bankable projects for blended investment with high ESG score. • Monitor performance of blue-green infrastructure As a spin-off of Vrije Universiteit Brussel and WEF Uplink Top Innovator, we bring state-of-the-art knowledge on environmental modelling, remote sensing, citizen science, insurance value and impact investment in a tool that meets our users where they are and where we can help them make a difference.

🌳 We are excited to support more resilience and quality of life for the residents of Guadallajara and beyond, together with IHE Delft Institute for Water Education 🤝 Big thanks to Heliodoro Ochoa Garcia, Luis Gabriel Torres González for organizing the event!

How to turn hotspots into hope spots? Yesterday, we had a great discussion on this question with water, urban habitat, design and communication experts at ITESO Universidad Jesuita de Guadalajara The university campus hosts 14.000 students on a 50ha piece of land and in many ways is an example of nature-based resilience and a spot of hope. But cross the street and you enter a hot spot: temperature and noise go up, water quality goes down, streets get flooded and traffic fumes fill the air. So how can the expertise and living lab on campus support more resilience and quality of life for the residents of Guadalajara and beyond? I’m excited to support this challenge with my colleagues at IHE Delft Institute for Water Education and BitaGreen - we’re preparing the project at the moment and soon will be piloting and keep you posted. Ps: check the last picture, if there really needs to be a car park, let it look like the one at this university - big fan of the porous pavement and large trees 🌳💪🏼🐝! Thanks to Heliodoro Ochoa Garcia, Luis Gabriel Torres González and colleagues for organizing fantastic day and tour.
