From green steel to hydrogen, the technology is ready - the question is how fast we can scale it. ‘This is one of the biggest business opportunities of our time,’ says Dan Ioschpe, CEO of Iochpe-Maxion and member of the Alliance Of CEO Climate Leaders. ‘Governments bring regulation and direction, academia brings knowledge, but the business sector is in a position to implement.’ Representing 130+ major companies with $4 trillion in combined revenues, the Alliance is urging policy-makers to act on climate change. As a signatory of their open letter to COP30, Ioschpe calls for cross-sector collaboration to turn proven technologies into global solutions.
