Look for connections and symbiosis

By collecting data in one place, it is possible to look for opportunities to connect supply and demand. PlatformU provides visualisation tools to help show connections between organisations.

Help your fight common challenges

Organisations that are better connected, are more likely to collaborate on solving bigger problems. PlatformU can help identify common social, technical and environmental resources in order to develop new opportunities.

PlatformU was developed by Metabolism of Cities in partnership with academics and researchers and with grateful support from foundations and public financing. Our ambition is to create tools to help reduce the environmental impact of industry and manufacturing, a sector that has a large demand of resources and produces vast quantities of waste. By better understanding how businesses and organisations work, it may be possible to find systemic solutions that can help both the individual and collective. Explore PlatformU now!
