About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Canada is looking for ways to transition to a net-zero emission economy by utilizing clean technology to reduce carbon emissions. However, challenges such as upfront costs and quantifying ROI can be a roadblock to being an active participant in this global sustainability initiative—and not participating can create missed opportunities in innovation, cost recovery and growth— leading to a competitive disadvantage.
