Rome, 16 September 2020 – From 23 September to 28 October 2020 UNIDO ITPO Italy will be hosting a weekly webinar series titled “Doing Green Business” – six thematic country presentations with the goal of fostering trade, technological innovation and investment within the energy and environment sectors between the private sector in Italy and targeted developing countries.

Doing Green Business is organized by UNIDO ITPO Italy in the framework of the project “Fostering international partnerships between companies and/or institutions operating in the energy and environment sectors” funded by the Italian Ministry for the Environment, Land and Sea.

Each weekly episode of Doing Green Business will be dedicated to one of the following partner countries: Peru, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Botswana, Ethiopia, and Cuba. In order to discuss ad-hoc trade opportunities and advance international business partnerships for local investment, the webinar series will see the participation of both local and Italian institutional and business stakeholders, promoting energy efficiency and renewable sources — including solar and wind energy, hydropower, geothermal energy, and bioenergy — and environmental technologies for water and waste management.

By offering insights on the sector-specific incentives in targeted countries, the initiative will support the commercialization and scale-up of alternative, eco-friendly energy sources and innovative environmental technologies for sustainable development.
