As an official partner of the CW NYC for the third year in a row, ENGIE, through ENGIE Impact, the group’s leading entity in supporting companies towards sustainable transformation solutions, will take part in the opening of the week and will speak on different panels.

athias Lelièvre, ENGIE Impact’s CEO, will open the event with a talk on “The climate in today’s geopolitical context”. He will present the key points to take from ENGIE Impact’s Net Zero Report 2022, our ENGIE Impact study that interviews the leaders of more than 600 global companies.

ENGIE is facing a challenge: to re-invent today the energy of tomorrow using new technologies and new partnerships to build low carbon emission energy systems with its customers, employees and stakeholders.

We are therefore taking part in VivaTech Paris, which has been a key event for the world leaders of the innovation sector since 2016. At the huge 250m² booth, visitors will be able to discover the technological solutions for innovation in the field of renewable energies and particularly the greening of electricity and gas; these technologies will enable us to change how we produce, use and consume energy.

What do we hope to get out of this event? Our goal is to promote positive impact innovation for renewable energies for our regional territories and society.

A unique experience

Visitors will be able to take an immersive technological trip, based on five themes related to sustainable energy: renewable energies, renewable gas, positive impact digital technology, innovation for the home and innovation for the territories. Business cases and the solutions proposed by ENGIE and our start-up partners will be presented for each stage.

Our stand will also be hosting various events over the four-day exhibition: pitches by start-up representatives, a live ‘Trends Shaker’, in collaboration with the So Good magazine, on the topic of ‘Entrepreneurialism, a new grail for the younger generation?’, and a presentation on algorithms by Aurélie Jean and the winner of the Pépites des Pépite prize.

Follow the event on social media! Stay tuned!
