Industrial Decarbonization: Pathways to Productivity and Growth

This panel brings together several global industrial firms that are successfully pursuing industrial decarbonization strategies that are win-win-win: increased productivity, increased growth and a decrease in emissions. They show how industrial actors are setting – and clearing – a higher bar in which green strategies are pursued as part of larger goals around growth, security and competitiveness. In an era when customers and consumers are reluctant to pay a green premium, panelists will speak to the “how” of industrial decarbonization and the role of the private and public sectors. Confirmed panelists: Jon Dearing, Vice President of Strategy and Public Affairs at National Cement Company Bilal Mohammed, Process Sustainability Director at Saint-Gobain North America Noorie Rajvanshi, Director, Sustainability and Climate Strategy at Siemens Heidi Peltonen, VP Sustainability, Outokumpu Elisabeth Reynolds, MIT Professor of the Practice, Moderator Location: Chelsea/Meatpacking District. Exact address provided upon RSVP approval. A confirmed ticket is required for entry. No walk-ins or unregistered guests will be accommodated.
