We envision cities that thrive in harmony with nature, creating resilient communities where people and ecosystems flourish together. EdenCT's mission is to transform cities into more livable, resilient environments by working with nature and ecosystems. We create innovative, cost-effective solutions that are robust and multi-functional through advanced modeling, data analytics, and integrated assessment approaches.
Comprehensive and multi-disciplinary environmental planning and design support, guiding cities towards sustainaiblity and higher liveability, by harnessing ecosystem services through smarter integrated urban water management and strategic urban nature-based solutions. We provide quantitative spatial and temporal evidence-based knowledge, leveraging cutting-edge science, to help you navigate the urban complexity from local to regional as well as future uncertainty.
Development and leveraging of planning-support software, data analytics, digital, web and AI tools to manage rich urban qualitative and quantitative data, actively engage stakeholders and decision-makers and facilitate capacity building and education.
Educational resources and services, specialized workshops, training and coaching to develop the skills needed for environmental management and urban planning in a world undergoing rapid digital and AI transformation. Finding new ways of buiilding integrated environmentalmanagement and AI literacy in professionals.
Targeted research projects to solve specific environmental challenges and explore new digital and AI applications for sustainability. With solid long-standing academic experience and strong global partnerships, we combine scientific rigour with practical implementation strategies to facilitate rapid knowledge transfer. Results contribute to our consulting services and digital solutions and education programmes.
As the founder of EdenCT, I bring over 15 years of interdisciplinary experience spanning engineering, environmental science, urban planning, and digital transformation. My passion lies in creating synergies between environmental sustainability, urban livability, and technological innovation.
My professional journey includes pioneering research at leading academic institutions, active participation in international working groups, and contributions to scientific literature across diverse fields. From stormwater management and urban ecology to climatology, resource sustainability, social sciences, and artificial intelligence, my work consistently bridges traditional disciplinary boundaries.
At EdenCT, our mission is to guide organizations through the integration of environmental science and digital technologies. We help clients develop adaptive, resilient Blue-Green Cities that are not only prepared for climate uncertainties but positioned to thrive amidst ongoing digital transformation. By leveraging cross-disciplinary expertise, we create urban spaces that balance ecological integrity with human wellbeing and technological advancement.

Our solutions adopt a multi-discplinary perspective and are targeted, in a holistic way, to the environmental challenges and digital transformation needs of each sector. We also work with different tertiary education institutes as well as National Associations and capacity building programmes.
Our digital solutions leverage the richness and ubiquity of data sources and cutting-edge analytics, modelling and visualization, allowing organizations to diagnose and anticipate inefficiencies, test scenarios of alternative solutions and make more informed and confident decisions. Examples include: thorough regional and local analysis of current water, energy and ecological aspects for a site and its region, historical and future trends in climate, space and resource usage, generative AI and interactive visualization of potential future consequences and ideas.
Our success is measured through multiple dimensions that go beyond traditional metrics. We assess whether we've fostered a holistic understanding of both the challenges and the spectrum of possible solutions. Most importantly, we measure success by the increased confidence our clients exhibit in their design and planning decisions. When stakeholders move forward with clarity, conviction, and a deeper understanding of the environmental and technological implications of their choices, we consider our work successful. This confidence manifests in more innovative approaches, better-integrated solutions, and greater resilience in the face of future uncertainties.
EdenCT's core value lies in our unique ability to bridge the gap between advanced environmental science and practical digital implementation. We transform complex interdisciplinary knowledge — spanning engineering, urban ecology, climatology, and digital technologies — into actionable solutions that address today's environmental challenges while anticipating tomorrow's uncertainties. Our integrated approach ensures that clients receive guidance that is both scientifically rigorous and technologically innovative. What truly sets us apart is our commitment to developing solutions that are both evidence-based and context-sensitive. We don't offer generic recommendations or one-size-fits-all approaches. Instead, we collaborate closely with each client to understand their specific environmental context, organizational capabilities, and long-term objectives.
We see AI as a co-pilot, a tool to support, cross-validate and assist in the ideation and communication process. With access to a large body of knowledge and its rapid retrieval, distillation and synthesis of information, AI's role will undoubtedly become more important in future for creating a more efficient and vibrant world and scaling up innovative ideas. EdenCT is actively following its development and adopting key these tools in our workflows. We embrace the oportunity rather than shy away from it!
Currently, EdenCT is leveraging various generative AI tools to support multi-lingual communication, concept and data visualization, optimisation of our digital solutions and for communication of new ideas. We use generative AI tools both in the cloud and on local hardware (offline).
A fun one we always get! Say it out loud and you'll notice. But it can stand for more than just the 'City'. What do you think it stands for?
