The 8th annual Sustainability Week focuses on helping businesses become sustainable faster.

We help businesses, policymakers, financiers, investors, NGOs and others achieve sustainability goals, faster.

Join Rohitesh Dhawan at the panel discussion on 'Creating a stratgey for hard-to-abate sectors', discussing how the heavy-emitting sectors can get a handle on emissions reduction, how much can businesses do themselves and what do they need from other stakeholders. The panel will also explore how technology can help decarbonise hard-to-abate sectors whilst remaining competitive while decarbonising.
