Leading the global green industrial revolution
In the final months of 2021 , the UK hosted two landmark global events , rolling out the green carpet for our inaugural Global Investment Summit and COP26 in Glasgow . It is clear that the global economy of the future is going to be a low carbon economy . And green investment will be the catalyst for the innovation to make it happen .
The UK is determined to be Asia ’ s partner of choice to tackle climate change and support the transition to clean growth . Together we can accelerate the industries of the future , from renewable energy and zero-emissions vehicles to green finance and infrastructure .
Looking ahead
There is no doubt the centre of gravity in the global economy is moving East . Almost 60 % of the world ’ s high-income earners are set to be in Asia by 2030 . That means more consumers who want to buy goods and services from the UK , whether it ’ s technology , financial services , or high-quality manufactured goods . From April 2022 , British Embassies and High Commissions in Asia Pacific will deliver trade support services to UK SMEs in-house . The Chamber will continue to be a valued partner in this new model and for the wider benefits and services it offers to members . My team across the region is here to support you and your business alongside our network of partners – including the British Chamber of Commerce – and we look forward to seizing the opportunities of the future together in a hugely competitive part of the world .
