There’s a lucrative opportunity in the Australian market for UK technology businesses providing innovative net zero and sustainability solutions. This is due to Australia’s legislation of carbon emission targets, which took place in 2022, when they committed to achieving net zero by 2050, and a significant reduction in emission levels by 2030. To achieve this, the Australian government has set out a Long-Term Emissions Reduction Plan, which focuses on a technology-based approach of reducing emissions . The government plans to invest AUD 20 billion on low carbon power over the next ten years, with the goal of unlocking AUD 80 billion of public and private investment in new technologies. With this in mind, Australian companies have set their own goals within their organisations to reduce their carbon footprint, investing in new technologies and alternative options to achieve this.
Join us for this exclusive webinar, in collaboration with techUK and Foley, where we will cover the following topics:
- An overview of the Australian net zero landscape and related market opportunities.
- Common challenges that Australian businesses are looking to address in their transition to net zero.
- How to join our upcoming ‘meet the buyer’ event, where UK businesses will have the chance to pitch their sustainability solutions to two major Australian corporates.
Who is the webinar suitable for?
We invite all companies in the Tech, Digital, or Advanced Manufacturing sectors who already have an established product or service that addresses climate change and net zero challenges, to join us for this webinar.
