Green Enterprise Summit 2012

 

Transition towards green enterprises & green economy

 

The idea of a green enterprise has become a key component of mainstream economic & enterprise discourse. The global economy has to move towards a  more efficient and equitable entity, where better use of natural resources to achieve sustainable growth is the focus. The idea of organizing this event has been conceived in the context of relevance of green enterprises. There are green entrepreneurial potentials and opportunities. Promotion and transition of enterprises towards ‘green’ is pivotal for achieving economic and social development that is environmentally sustainable. 

 

A broader policy agenda for climate-resilient strategies and sustainable growth, which is enterprise oriented, that reduces poverty and generates job is the need of the hour.  Green Industries which are based on green technology are promising growth sectors. However, in order to promote this sector, the Government must support them through green oriented financial policies. Also, it is to be noted that promotion of green enterprise and green economy require favorable legal frameworks, policies, strategies and a regulatory environment that has strong institutions with strong apex leadership to provide financial and non-financial services.

 

Focus: Questions to be addressed!

 

Green enterprises can substantially contribute in reducing pollution and environmental degradation. But how far industries are aware of their responsibilities?
