The symposium facilitated policy and practical exchanges on two fundamental agendas that serve as critical keys to the transition, working together to reach conclusions for driving the low-carbon society forward: 1) Energy Transition aimed at elevating energy systems to align with Net Zero targets, and 2) Just Transition for SMEs creating opportunities for small and medium enterprises to genuinely access ESG mechanisms.
