COP27 Engagement for the CA2SIG
- Woody Moore
The CA2SIG will have a presence at COP27. Our goal is to use this opportunity to attract new research and development support, funding, and corporate / IGO partners. We have a great mission to create an efficient marketplace for environmental data in order to decarbonize corporate supply chains and want to build on our recent success with the award winning prototype that the CA2SIG lab has produced.
We've received advice that much of our success will depend on establishing contact with targeted stakeholders ahead of COP27 in order to establish a dialogue and opportunities or face-to-face meetings at COP27. We're reaching out for your help in establishing some of these connections with IGO's that will be attending.
The list is too large for Robin and I to cover alone, but with the help of CA2SIG members, I think we could get good coverage and be more effective for the CA2SIG.
I have worked to make the "ask: as easy as possible, so if you are able to help us, please read the instructions below. Even if you are only able to reach out to 3-4 organizations, collectively this would be a tremendous help!
