How EVE started

EXPLORE
Overview

The concept of EVE was first developed at the Berlin Summit for EVE, held in Berlin, Germany, on 3-7 July 2023.

The Berlin Summit set the stage for international collaboration on Earth Virtualization Engines (EVE), ushering in a new era of scientific innovation and climate resilience.

Stay tuned as the outcomes of the Berlin Summit and the progress of the EVE centers unfold, bringing us closer to a more resilient and sustainable future for generations to come!

The Berlin Summit brought together invited participants from across the world to draft a blueprint for EVE.

During the summit’s opening, prominent keynote speakers underscored the necessity of international collaboration to access the key technologies at the scale required to advance Earth system knowledge.

Their discussions aimed to establish a foundation for sustainable planetary management in the Anthropocene.

EVE was first articulated in a statement developed based on input and ideas refined within breakout groups over the course of the Summit.

"Technology offers tremendous opportunities for helping people to imagine their world — to make the results of our actions tangible — and for creating the tools we will need to manage the world in the Anthropocene.

The question posed by the Berlin Summit for EVE was how to best access and use advanced technologies, the world over, to best realize this potential."
