We spoke to Laura Citron, CEO of London & Partners, to explore what makes the capital an international success and how it can build on that into the future. Laura shared her insights into making the city a magnet - for talent, investment and creativity - building on the discussion at our Work, Live, Play conference.

Les enjeux climatiques sont au cœur des problématiques politiques mondiales, mais également économiques. La tech n'est pas en reste dans le domaine. Selon un rapport de l'agence spécialisée London & Partners et DealRoom, 2021 a été une année record pour les investissements dans la Climate Tech avec plus de 32 milliards investis. Une dynamique qui se ressent en Europe, mais aussi sur le continent africain. Les AfricaTech Awards de cette année ont accordé une distinction spéciale aux start-up qui luttent contre le changement climatique. Le Kényan Bonnie Mbithie a été primé avec son initiative de recyclage des déchets informatiques. Il est convaincu que les nouvelles technologies peuvent jouer leur rôle dans la préservation de l'environnement. « Je crois que la technologie a un grand rôle à jouer. Mais elle est très liée au changement climatique. Plus nous avons de technologies, plus cela affecte le changement climatique, s'il n'y a pas une bonne façon de gérer les déchets des technologies. Il doit y avoir un équilibre entre la façon dont nous les consommons et la façon dont nous les traitons lorsqu'elles ne fonctionnent plus. » De nombreuses start-up africaines ont des activités liées à l'environnement. Parmi elles, implantée à Brazzaville et Pointe-Noire, Green Tech Africa a développé un absorbant d'hydrocarbure naturel. Ce dernier est fabriqué à base de jacinthe d'eau, une plante invasive sur les cours d'eau congolais. « Nos absorbants ont une capacité d'absorption plus grande et plus importante par rapport aux absorbants synthétiques qu'on peut trouver sur le marché. Et ici, au niveau du marché européen, on trouve beaucoup plus des absorbants synthétiques. Et nous nous venons avec cette valeur ajoutée », explique Daphnée Mayet, de Green tech Africa. Un intérêt certain pour l'innovation La technologie dans le domaine de l'environnement intéresse les petits entrepreneurs, mais également les grandes entreprises comme Total. Début 2022, l'entreprise s'est engagée à réduire de 50% ses émissions de méthane d'ici à 2025. Et pour cela, elle compte sur l'innovation. Depuis 2017, Total en partenariat avec le CNRS et l'Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne a développé Auséa, un capteur intelligent. « Auséa est le capteur le plus performant au monde aujourd'hui, affirme Louise Tricoire, chargée de la lutte contre les émissions de CO2 et de méthane chez TotalEnergies. Il a été développé pour améliorer notre connaissance de nos émissions de méthane, on l'a ensuite miniaturisé et porté sur drone. Et donc on a développé ces algorithmes de rétro calcule donc au fur et à mesure le développement nous a amené en 2021 à aller faire des tests en réel sur des plateformes onshore et offshore. » Des campagnes vont être menées sur différents sites de Total au Congo, en Angola et au Gabon. « Une de nos campagnes nous a permis d'identifier une fuite au Nigeria sur un bac de stockage, ajoute Louise Tricoire. Du coup, on a réduit de 4 000 tonnes par an les émissions, enfin une fuite de méthane. » Cette technologie intéresse déjà les partenaires du géant des énergies français.

Interview de Laura Citron, directrice générale de London & Partners.

The rise in demand for places where people can live, work and spend their leisure time all within their local communities has led to a resurgence in the 15-minute community. The concept has been around for several years and, in short, seeks to rethink how communities are planned by focusing on reducing car-dependency and long commutes. It improves quality of life by ensuring all essential amenities can be reached within a 15 or 20-minute journey from home, whether on foot, bike or by public transport.In this episode, Peter Hogg from Arcadis is joined by Laura Citron, Chief Executive at London & Partners, and Anthony Breach, Analyst at Centre for Cities to discuss whether 15-minute communities are the shape of our cities in the future or are they only half the answer? And are they urgently needed for revival after the pandemic or do 15-minute communities miss the point of what cities are for?

We managed to fit all of these into 30 minutes: - What does Insurtech actually mean these days? - How is funding getting in for insurtechs, start-ups and others? - Acceleration in activity over last few months? - Are we seeing a once in a decade opportunity now? - What's happening in innovation at insurers themselves? - Data - good or bad? - Advice for innovation mangers at insurers?
