“For Carbon Standard, receiving the Expo Green Licence is more than recognition – it demonstrates that sustainability is being translated into measurable action. As a company dedicated to helping businesses and governments set and achieve their environmental objectives, we see the Expo Green Licence as an important catalyst for organisations to turn ambition into measurable and verifiable progress. Expo City Dubai provides the right environment for collaboration between businesses, technology providers, consultants, regulators and policymakers – partnerships that are essential to accelerating the green transition and building a greener future for the UAE and beyond,” said Ms Anna Chekanova, Group Chief Financial Officer at Industrial Innovation Group and representative of Carbon Standard.
Carbon Standard works on climate frameworks, sustainability strategies, national carbon registries, emission reduction strategies and carbon credit-related mechanisms, supporting governments and businesses in advancing their climate and sustainability objectives.
