Industry net zero accelerator

Tech innovations in manufacturing and supply chains to accelerate the path to net zero

As a strategic partner to the World Economic Forum, we are co-leading this critical initiative with the Forum, Siemens, Rockwell Automation, and Cambridge Industrial Innovation Policy (Institute for Manufacturing, University of Cambridge). This exceptional collaboration, with a growing community of more than 50 industry leaders, technology specialists and academia experts, aims to drive actionable solutions for industrial decarbonization.

Representing nearly 30% of global GHG emissions, reaching net zero in manufacturing and value chains will be one of the most critical and most difficult challenges of our times. Our initiative aims to establish a cross-industry space under the Forum’s neutral platform to guide industry leaders’ strategic action, and support and scale systemic collaborations to solve the concrete challenges in the path towards net zero.
