CERGE-EI Alumni among Winners of Climathon 2021

27 October, 2021

We are happy to relate that two CERGE-EI alumni, Kristína Hrehová and Tomáš Mičko, are among the members of a team that won first prize at the Bratislava Climathon 2021.

"We look forward to collaborating further with the municipality of Bratislava. Our team identified connections where cars are faster than public transport on a city scale. These connections can be further optimized by city planners," Kristína Hrehová explained. The 3-minute presentation (in English) by a team member and IES Alumni, Michal Kotrč, is available here (approx. 6:19).

Climathon is a city-based program created by EIT Climate-KIC that offers a clear pathway to action and interaction - an opportunity for cities and citizens to co-create local ideas for shared climate challenges.
