The 7th Annual Green Technology Asia Conference organised by Comfori saw Nic Chin being invited as one of the guest speakers. The conference was held over two days on the 23rd and 24th May 2017 at ParkRoyal, Kuala Lumpur.

The background of the event describes the negotiations under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) has seen detailed and prolonged debate on potential economic, regulatory and market‐based measures to address climate change through low‐carbon development. There has been recent agreement that the adoption of appropriate policy measures for low carbon development are indispensable for achieving sustainable development. Green growth can enhance efficiency and productivity. Green, resource efficient technologies and practices often save resources and money compared to conventional alternatives. They enhance competitiveness over the long term, and sometimes in the short term.

In Malaysia there has been many policies, legislations and promotional activities put in place to foster green growth for the nation. However, more needs to be done by all parties through strategic partnerships and collaborations; these efforts need to be long term and consistent for us to achieve green growth and overall sustainability. The 7th Annual GreenTech Asia delivered a solution-driven agenda that addresses the complexity and uniqueness of the GreenTech in Malaysia and worldwide. In addition to the sessions on GreenTech technology updates and development opportunities, the conference also discussed significant issues in term of GreenTech management in Malaysia.

Nic Chin was allocated two slots in the conference, and he managed to cover two different topics. The topics delivered by Nic were “How advanced lighting reduced energy consumption” and “Achieving building sustainability with simulation technology”.

The conference saw participants that were decision makers in their respective firms and industries, from MDs, C-Suite Executives, VPs, GMs, HODs, City Mayors to City Government Officials.
