EuCham is currently involved in promoting the realization of the revolutionary IBIS international platform, sponsored by the United Nations, which will link donors and funders from the most developed countries with recipients from less developed ones. The purpose is to enhance actors augmenting sustainable development.
There are all the premises to be a worldwide and revolutionary innovation which could lead to significant scale-back of investments worldwide, or a potential breakdown of global cooperation on sustainability agenda.
In addition to the European Chamber, manifestations of interest in joining the project have already come from other remarkable international actors like UNEP – United Nations Environmental Programme, UNDP – United Nations Development Programme, EIB – European Investment Bank, Finnish Innovation Fund, EMPA – Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology, GeSI – Global e-Sustainability Initiative, Euresearch, EIT – European Institute of Innovation and Technology, Fundes, GIZ, Horizon2020, National Cleaner Production Centers & Networks (NCPCs), Sustainable Recycling Industries (SRI), with many more under negotiation.
