Green Urbanics Business Livecast Series - Europe meets South-East Asia

Green Urbanics Business Livecast Series is designed to bring together demanding stakeholders from smart cities and municipalities, state, agricultural and educational institutions, corporates and impact investors looking to go greener with groundbreaking bio-inspired and cleantech innovators from around the world ready to provide tools for a healthier environment, applicable nature-based solutions and ecosystem services for the built environment.

There's a growing urban population in need of every square inch of green, glimpse of nature, savings of GHG emissions and being connected to wildlife to help reduce the effects of extreme weather events, heat islands, pollution, climate change and biodiversity loss.

Green Urbanics Business Livecast Series aims at showcasing cities leading the green recovery revolution globally, responsible corporates with best practice net-zero pledges and climate-friendly programs getting the worldwide recognition they deserve. We intend to introduce some of the most innovative urban nature-based, bio-inspired, eco-friendly and cleantech business solutions designed to help regenerate a degrading planet.

During the first, June 24 session of a series of business livecast events by Green Urbanics, you'll be invited to hear from urban sustainability champions looking for the latest innovative green solutions from Europe and South East Asia. Their presentations will be followed by pitches from green business nature-based solution providers, a live Q&A session and an optional hour of 1-on-1 networking with the speakers. Look for virtual exhibition booths throughout the event - all in a compact, 3-hour online format, starting at 8 a.m. London time / 3 p.m. Singapore time.
