00:00:04.270 --> 00:00:05.672
- Many companies are looking

2
00:00:05.672 --> 00:00:08.675
at transforming their
operations for sustainability

3
00:00:08.675 --> 00:00:12.379
and as they do so, they are
under a lot of pressure.

4
00:00:12.379 --> 00:00:13.380
They have to look at emissions

5
00:00:13.380 --> 00:00:16.049
across scope one, scope two, scope three.

6
00:00:16.049 --> 00:00:19.386
They need to find ways to manage
and reduce their footprint.

7
00:00:19.386 --> 00:00:21.187
This is not only a necessity

8
00:00:21.187 --> 00:00:24.424
but also a massive opportunity
both for startup companies

9
00:00:24.424 --> 00:00:26.659
but also for established corporations.

10
00:00:26.659 --> 00:00:29.162
There's trillions of
dollars being invested

11
00:00:29.162 --> 00:00:30.330
in new technologies

12
00:00:30.330 --> 00:00:33.299
and new business models
to drive decarbonization

13
00:00:33.299 --> 00:00:35.869
and we believe corporations
have an opportunity

14
00:00:35.869 --> 00:00:37.837
to be part of this and drive growth

15
00:00:37.837 --> 00:00:40.774
in their business by helping
others to decarbonize.

16
00:00:43.276 --> 00:00:45.879
Two-thirds of the
technologies which we need

17
00:00:45.879 --> 00:00:48.181
in order to get to net zero by 2050

18
00:00:48.181 --> 00:00:50.717
require some form of innovation.

19
00:00:50.717 --> 00:00:52.919
About half of those
two-thirds need to come

20
00:00:52.919 --> 00:00:56.189
from scaling existing
technologies -- think hydrogen --

21
00:00:56.189 --> 00:00:59.159
and the other half requires
completely new innovation.

22
00:01:00.093 --> 00:01:01.995
And so there are really two forms

23
00:01:01.995 --> 00:01:04.164
of innovation CEOs should look at.

24
00:01:04.164 --> 00:01:07.167
On one hand, how do I
scale what already exists?

25
00:01:07.167 --> 00:01:10.170
And then on the other hand,
how can I really leverage

26
00:01:10.170 --> 00:01:13.473
new technologies for
breakthrough new innovation?

27
00:01:13.473 --> 00:01:14.441
There are lots of barriers

28
00:01:14.441 --> 00:01:16.743
for companies when it comes to innovation.

29
00:01:16.743 --> 00:01:18.678
Typically, many of the
companies we talk to

30
00:01:18.678 --> 00:01:21.214
are really good at incremental innovation

31
00:01:21.214 --> 00:01:24.017
but whenever there is more
disruptive innovation,

32
00:01:24.017 --> 00:01:26.586
we find companies have
challenges doing that.

33
00:01:26.586 --> 00:01:29.956
And so there it helps to find
new governance structures,

34
00:01:29.956 --> 00:01:32.192
new ways to develop a new business model

35
00:01:32.192 --> 00:01:33.393
outside from the core.

36
00:01:34.828 --> 00:01:37.697
I think CEOs need to keep in
mind that generally speaking

37
00:01:37.697 --> 00:01:40.333
we have a tendency to
underestimate the speed

38
00:01:40.333 --> 00:01:43.536
at which new technologies
evolve and then gets to scale.

39
00:01:43.536 --> 00:01:45.472
And so it's important
to have a look at that

40
00:01:45.472 --> 00:01:48.041
and early on, identify
what are opportunities

41
00:01:48.041 --> 00:01:50.310
for me to leverage such new technologies

42
00:01:50.310 --> 00:01:51.811
to drive my business forward

43
00:01:51.811 --> 00:01:54.147
and drive growth in my business.
