Assessment and support guide

With an expanded climate innovation agenda, the need to support and assess innovations and solution providers (rather than only focus on stakeholders as sources as emissions) is rapidly increasing. As the world is rapidly changing the drivers and opportunities will change. In order to meet different and changing demands this platform is user driven. It is meant as a matchmaking platform where users of assessments can communicate their needs to those developing tools and initiatives.

Innovation quadrants for 11 billion flourishing lives on a regenerative planet

In order to deliver globally sustainable solutions that allow everyone to live flourishing lives on a regenerative planet there is a need to move beyond a focus on single products and materials to system solutions. The Innovation quadrant for 11 billion flourishing lives is a way to illustrate the need to both address climate change and land-use as well as making the system solutions cost efficient. Today too many initiatives are just trying to make fossil free versions of current products, ignoring land-use and resource efficiency as well as affordability. Using the Innovation quadrant can help you move from a narrow product/material perspective to a human need driven innovation agenda with system solutions.

Understand your role in the 21st century innovation ecosystem

Coming soon

To capture the opportunities in the 4th industrial revolution and deliver on what is needed to address the global challenges facing humanity the innovation ecosystem must move from the current linear model with focus on improving existing system. It is time to build a 21st century innovation system with focus on sustainable solutions that deliver on human needs in ways that are compatible with a future where 11 billion people can live flourishing lives on a regenerative planet in balance. Such a system must be able to deliver system solutions, support exponential uptake and differentiate between tools and goals.

Flow and mental pollution assessment using brain science

Using neuroscience to guide a new generation of companies that want to make the world a better place. This assessment is an important part of the toolbox for globally sustainable solutions. In addition to providing guidance for key stakeholders when it comes to identifying, supporting and accelerating solutions for the 21st century it also has the potential to provide guidance for a post SDG agenda with focus on flourishing lives for all on a regenerative planet.

The Initiative

Flourishing Lives 4 All (FL4ALL)

FL4ALL emerged from Mission Innovation Net-Zero Compatible Innovations Initiative (NCI) in 2025. Together with partners we identified the need for an initiative that focuses on a positive vision for the future, rather than only focusing on what we need less of. Hence, the focus is a future where 8-12 billion people live flourishing lives on a flourishing planet.

The timing is also perfect with rapidly emerging solutions in areas such as AI, robotics, biotech, material science and nanotech, but probably even more important are the rapid policy innovation, business model innovation and new ideas that shape tomorrow’s policy frameworks, economic theories, tools, legal innovation and values. The latter innovations shift the Overton window and moving ideas and solutions from “unthinkable” to “popular”.

The history of an expanded innovation and human need driven solution agenda

Below is an overview of key reports, initiatives and tools that focus on companies, cities, start-ups and other stakeholders, as solution providers.

The role of digitalisation and innovation dominated the early 2000’s, followed by a phase around the 2010's where start-ups and transformative solutions experienced exponential growth.

In the current phase, a tension exists between companies and stakeholders looking to find easy ways to report net-zero with any form of product substitution that delivers avoided emissions and those who want to deliver 1.5°C globally sustainable solutions, that also require system substitutions and business model innovation.

A new phase for the solution agenda is also emerging where the focus is on how to deliver flourishing lives for all on a flourishing planet and a positive post-SDG agenda, beyond sustainability.
