Welcome! I'm Attila, Director of the Center for Systems Innovation (www.systemsinnovation.eu), Founder and Director of Research at PHYSI (www.physi.earth) and Ph.D. Candidate at the Central European University (www.ceu.edu), Principal Investigator of 5 EU projects, EU Climate Pact Ambassador, and I'm happy to share my journey with you. My current engagements emerged from academic, consulting, and teaching activities across Europe, Asia, and North America spanning over a decade, where I learned the limitations of ‘business as usual’ approaches to addressing systemic challenges. This solidified my commitment to work with change agents, encourage people to think critically, co-create, and look for creative solutions to tackle fundamental sustainability challenges. Driven by a background in engineering and economics, I focused my PhD on unlocking the transformative potential of nature in cities through clever governance, business, finance and partnership models, which is what led me to collaborate with colleagues at CEU to establish PHYSI, an urban consulting, modeling and software company, where we also manage the world's largest urban nature database, the Urban Nature Atlas. Additionally, I had the privilege of working for intergovernmental organizations like the Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe, EIT KICs, and various UN and EU bodies, lead youth organisations, teach at universities from Mongolia to Estonia, dive coral reefs, build canadian first nations inukshuks, cross deserts, and get to know wonderful people along the way. My goal is to share my professional learnings from this journey and apply them in projects and initiatives. I aim to scale systems approaches by forging partnerships and providing people with the necessary knowledge to make a positive impact. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, intrapreneur, policymaker, expert, student, teacher, or simply an enthusiast – me and my colleagues are here to support you.
