The Chemical Industry Touches Everything – And Together, We’re Transforming It
Chemicals form the building blocks for 95% of everyday products we all use – from smartphones to packaging, medical devices to sustainable transportation. Yet this essential industry currently contributes about 6% of global greenhouse gas emissions – more than twice that of the entire aviation sector.
The challenge is too large and complex for any single company to solve alone. Transforming this vital industry requires unprecedented collaboration across the entire value chain.
That’s why we’ve created the Global Impact Coalition – a unique platform where industry leaders co-develop tangible projects, share investment risk, and scale proven solutions that reduce emissions while enabling a circular economy. We don’t just talk about sustainability – we make it happen together.
Who We Are
The Global Impact Coalition is a first of its kind collaboration of global leaders in the chemical industry. We are supported by an expanding expert community of over 100 senior executives in the chemical industry and adjacent sectors.
Together we are enabling a pathway to net-zero emissions by:
Addressing technology, regulatory, funding, and market challenges to reduce carbon emissions and advance circularity
Collaborating with and beyond the industry to develop and scale-up more sustainable technologies
Developing real-life projects to transform traditional operating models in key value chains into net-zero systems
Our key objectives
Build proof-of-concept pilots & advance new technologies:
The GIC helps incubate and catalyse proof-of-concept projects to speed up the adoption and scaling of emissions-reducing technologies.
Forge cross-sector partnerships:
Aimed at forging alliances within industries and across value chains, GIC works to tackle high-risk challenges not suited for traditional commercial partnerships.
Facilitate collaboration and knowledge exchange:
GIC provides a safe space for transparent dialogue and information sharing, helping deepen the collective understanding of challenges and solutions to achieve industry-wide sustainability goals.
