Gauteng Industrial Symbiosis Programme Business Opportunity Workshop

The National Cleaner Production Centre South Africa (NCPC-SA in collaboration with the Gauteng Department of Environment (GDEnv), invites you to attend the Gauteng Industrial Symbiosis Programme (GISP) business opportunity workshop.

Under the theme “Gauteng Industrial Symbiosis: Driving Green Growth and Circular Economy,” the workshop will provide a facilitation session to promote the exchange of residual resources (materials, energy, water, waste, assets, logistics, expertise, etc.) between companies that have and those that can use them. The programme will also highlight the emerging trends, including carbon credits, green enterprise opportunities for SMMEs and RECP implementation in large enterprises.

About the IS Programme
