Description: 
The Italian company is specialized on climate services, analysis of climate data and creation of instruments for identifying risks and managing decision-making processes related to climate variability and climate change. Analysis includes the processing of data from climate models, satellites and weather stations, the design of tailored climate indices and the identification of appropriate risk modelling approaches. The company has developed a ground-breaking, AI-powered software as a service (SaaS) that exploits the best available science data to help Insurance and Reinsurance companies (IRCs) adapt their strategies to the Earth's changing climate. It offers a comprehensive portfolio of climate services based on cutting-edge proprietary methodologies, that translate raw climate and socio-economic data into actionable knowledge for climate risk management. It provides a one-stop, easy-to-use, fast and cost-effective solution to seamlessly access multiple databases, transform this data into thorough and ready-to- use information on climate risk, and in particular to quantify the forecasted variations in frequency of extreme events. As such, the software aligns with the European Green Deal, that states "It will be important to ensure that across the EU, investors, insurers, businesses, cities and citizens are able to access data and to develop instruments to integrate climate change into their risk management practices."
