Singapore, 24 October 2023
In addition to showcasing the Nordic sustainable and energy efficient solutions, it is important for us to dive deeper and discuss the priorities, challenges and actions we can take when answering the question of “How to achieve a Sustainable Built Environment”?.
We organized a panel discussion on the challenges impeding our swift progress towards a sustainable built environment. The discussions encompassed various themes, such as the potential of rich data in assisting companies to achieve their sustainability objectives, refurbishment in existing buildings and guidance for startups in the climate tech sector, among other topics.
This event is jointly organised by Nordic Innovation House Singapore, Innovation Norway, the Embassy of Denmark in Singapore, Business Sweden Asia-Pacific, the Embassy of Finland in Singapore and Business Iceland, and supported by NordicTalks (brought to you by The Nordics, a project under The Nordic Council of Ministers) and Nordic Innovation.
