The CAT project receives ADEME support

Great news for the UNYRA ecosystem: the CAT project (Consortium d'Accompagnement des Transitions — Consortium for Transition Support), led by Pascal Bitsch, has just received official support from ADEME (the French Agency for Ecological Transition).

What Is CAT?

CAT is a consortium whose mission is to accelerate eco-systemic transitions across territories and industry sectors. In practice, it supports local stakeholders — local authorities, businesses, associations — in their ecological transformation by fostering cooperation and resource sharing.

CAT's approach is systemic: rather than addressing environmental issues in silos, the project seeks to create transition dynamics that involve an entire territorial ecosystem.

ADEME's Support

Receiving ADEME's backing is a major recognition for the project. France's national agency for ecological transition is one of the leading public funders of environmental innovation. Its involvement validates the relevance of CAT's approach and opens significant growth opportunities.

A Project That Resonates with UNYRA's Vision

CAT embodies a philosophy close to UNYRA's: the conviction that major transitions don't happen alone, but through networks. Pascal Bitsch and his team demonstrate that cooperation between stakeholders within the same territory is a powerful lever for ecological transformation.

This success illustrates the ability of the UNYRA ecosystem to support projects that gain top-level institutional recognition.
