First Movers’ Coalition: Matching Supply and Demand for Accelerating Net Zero Solutions | Ep.63

Innovation Zero 2023

How is FMC complementary to other initiatives in the industry decarbonisation ecosystem and how can demand-driven action advance technical, financial and policy-related support for scaling domestic supply of low- or zero-carbon alternatives?

How does FMC fit with the priorities and leadership of the UK government on climate action and industry transition?

How can partnerships and collaborations between government, private sector, finance and civil society stakeholders accelerate decarbonisation efforts in the UK – and where are opportunities for business to be competitive in the low-carbon economy?

How have FMC Members been leading in delivering on their offtake commitments and making deals up and downstream of their value chains?

What demand-focused initiatives in the United Kingdom are complementary to FMC’s mission and what’s the role of innovation agencies in this regard?

What supply-side projects are in the pipeline in the UK to meet the offtake commitments made by FMC members?

The answers to all these questions will be explored in this session. Featuring Magali Anderson (Chief Sustainability & Innovation Officer, Holcim), Nathan Cooper (Director, Policy Engagement, High-Level Climate Champions), Christian Coolsaet (Managing Director, Volvo Trucks), and Bruce Adderly (Challenge Director, Transforming Foundation Industries, Innovate UK).

The inaugural Innovation Zero Congress at Olympia London in 2023 convened 6,866 passionate, forward-looking experts who exchanged critical knowledge, debate and discussions around the implementation and scaling of the innovations needed to meet the Paris goals. Learn more via www.innovationzero.com.
