Cementing the future: How the Global South can lead the way to build markets for low-carbon cement
Governments are the world's largest cement buyers — which makes public procurement one of the most powerful, under-used levers for cleaner industry. On September 23, Industrious Labs debuts a practical framework for advancing low-carbon procurement in the Global South, with a panel bringing together the people positioned to act on it. Hear directly from stakeholders across the Global South — the policymakers, practitioners, and industry voices whose lived experience is shaping what low-carbon procurement looks like in practice.
Our panelists are:
Andrés Arauz PhD, Senior Advisor to i3T, Ecuador
Stefania Relva ScD, Director of Industrial Transformation, E+, Brazil
Vivek Adhia, Chief Sustainability Officer, UltraTech Cement, India
Ruth Onkangi PhD, Officer, Construction Research and Business Development, National Construction Authority, Kenya
Following the conversation, join us for drinks and a networking happy hour with fellow Climate Week attendees from 4:30–6:00 PM.
Additional details about the event including a list of panelists will be shared soon.
