UrbanThinkPlatform concludes 2025 and opens a new European phase with PUREPOLIS
At the time when we are concluding 2025, UrbanThinkPlatform is crossing a major milestone in its development.
Our growth, which started in 2018 and has been consolidated by our deployments in France, now allows us to accelerate our European expansion. In 2026, we will fully engage our teams in PUREPOLIS, a Horizon Europe program dedicated to reducing urban pollution and promoting environmental health.
This project embodies the continuity of our mission: make the invisible visible and put data at the service of a fair and efficient ecological transition.
PUREPOLIS: an ambitious European project to which UrbanThink contributes
PUREPOLIS aims to develop innovative strategies to reduce air, water, noise, and soil pollution in European cities.
Starting in 2026, the consortium will deploy:
a citizen application to strengthen public involvement,
a toolbox for decision-makers, focused on zero pollution,
a detailed assessment of 35 pollutants,
a next-generation multi-pollutant digital twin,
field experiments in Nantes Métropole and Valencia.
Our role is part of the continuity of our expertise: visualization, territorial digital twins, structuring environmental data.
2026: UrbanThink scales up and affirms its CSR strategy
2026 will not only be the year of the deployment of PUREPOLIS.
This will be a turning point year for UrbanThinkPlatform:
1. Expansion at the European level
Thanks to our participation in PUREPOLIS, UrbanThinkPlatform strengthens its European positioning and applies its technologies to multi-city, multi-country challenges.
This dynamic reinforces our ambition: to put our digital twins at the service of increasingly diverse territories, beyond French borders.
2. A strengthened priority: CSR
True to our values of innovation, inclusion, and responsibility, we will make 2026 a year dedicated to:
digital sobriety,
the transparency and accessibility of environmental data,
the support for public and private actors in their climate, biodiversity, and energy trajectories,
the enhanced integration of our CSR, climate, and biodiversity modules already present in our R&D.
This CSR orientation is fully aligned with European standards, reporting obligations, and the rise of digital twins as tools for sustainable management.
Our added value: transforming European data into levers for action
By bringing our technological foundation — digital twins, interoperability, robust data architecture, we will contribute to:
harmonizing environmental data produced at the European level,
producing useful and comparable indicators between territories,
making public policies more readable, anticipatory, and actionable.
A European collaboration for the cities of tomorrow
The PUREPOLIS consortium brings together 19 partners from 8 countries. UrbanThink will bring its expertise from strategic projects already carried out with local authorities, ports, industrial actors, and asset managers.
This collaboration confirms our growing role in the European ecosystem of digital ecological transition.
In conclusion: 2026, the year of the transition to a European and committed UrbanThink
2025 will have laid the foundations.
2026 will be the year when UrbanThink grows, becomes more European, and strengthens its CSR commitment.
PUREPOLIS is much more than a project: it is an opportunity to demonstrate that environmental digital twins can become a genuine European common good, serving healthier, more resilient, and inclusive cities.
Thanks to the consortium partners and the Horizon Europe program for their trust.
See you in early 2026 to follow the first steps of the deployment.
