Geneva, Switzerland – 20.09.2025
Syntezia, a Swiss firm specialising in responsible artificial intelligence, and Consulio, a Croatian firm with expertise in sustainable development, today announced the formation of a strategic partnership. This alliance aims to accelerate the ecological transition in cities by using responsible AI, foresight and creative strategies, with a
particular focus on mobility and managing the effects of overtourism.
Faced with the growing challenges of climate change and urbanisation, the two firms are joining forces to offer innovative and ethical solutions.
This strategic partnership responds to the need to integrate cutting-edge digital
technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, to design more resilient,
green and inclusive cities.
"Technology is a powerful lever for change, but it must be used responsibly. Our
collaboration with Consulio allows us to apply our expertise in AI and
foresight to concrete and urgent challenges, such as urban mobility and
overtourism, which affect many regions in Europe,‘ said Yves Zieba, CEO of
Syntezia. ’We are convinced that the dual digital and ecological transition is
the only path to a sustainable urban future."
The complementary expertise of Syntezia and Consulio is at the heart of this
partnership. While Syntezia brings in-depth knowledge of responsible AI and
strategic innovation, Consulio contributes its field experience in sustainable
development, urban planning and tourism-specific issues.
‘Cities and coastal regions, particularly in Croatia, face intense environmental and social
pressures. By combining Syntezia's technological approach with our local
expertise, we can design concrete strategies to mitigate the effects of
overtourism and create more fluid and sustainable mobility systems,’ added Iva
Matasic, CEO of Consulio. ‘This partnership is a perfect synergy to transform
our cities into smarter, greener and more harmonious living spaces.’
This Swiss-Croatian partnership marks an important step in promoting a pan-European
approach to the dual transition. The two firms will work hand in hand on pilot
projects aimed at demonstrating the positive impact of responsible AI on
mobility flow management, resource optimisation and urban environmental
protection.
