Baptiste Laurent
Expert in resilient urban greening
The world is warming up, the temperature is rising quickly... Even more quickly in cities, with a phenomenon called heat island. How to refresh? There is a solution: nature. Nature is the simplest and most powerful urban air conditioner. But nature is struggling to gain ground in the city... Why? What are the restraints? How can we accelerate its development? What solutions can help? Baptiste Laurent is passionate about entrepreneurship and innovation serving the common good. Concerned about the adaptation to climate change in cities and aware of the urgency that confronts us to act; Baptiste is keen to restore the value of rainwater in the city. He created the startup Vertuo which manufactures the first water sufficient greening solution for the city.
