The Heat is On: Accelerating Industrial Decarbonization

Industrial heat accounts for over half of global industrial emissions—more than 7 GT of CO₂ annually—making it one of the most critical levers for decarbonizing global industry across many sectors.  

We invite you to join Third Derivative, Founders Factory, and HSBC for a breakfast workshop exploring how innovative startups, emerging business models, and targeted investment can accelerate clean heat adoption, especially in fast-growing markets like India and Southeast Asia.  

The event will combine sharp market framing and insights from innovators with interactive roundtables to unpack barriers and unlock solutions. This session kicks off a longer-term dialogue around enabling technologies for industrial decarbonization—including firm power, CCUS, and hydrogen.
