CO2Wall expands operations in Saudi Arabia to support Vision 2030
Greenlogue/AP
CO2Wall, a Netherlands-based climate solutions company, has launched operations in Saudi Arabia with the opening of a new office in Riyadh. This move aligns with the Kingdom's Vision 2030, which aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 and enhance urban sustainability.
The company's expansion is facilitated through a partnership with AstroLabs, a business expansion platform in the Gulf region. Gerwin Pul, CEO of CO2Wall Group BV and General Manager of CO2Wall Group KSA, emphasized that the Riyadh office will help meet the growing demand for their desert-adaptive systems in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. These systems, already deployed in high-impact government projects, are designed to improve air quality, regulate building temperatures, and boost biodiversity in urban areas.

Winners receive a one-year individual membership to The One Club, free access to professional panels and mentorship events, and a complimentary ticket to a One Club development conference. Their work will be showcased on The One Club's website and social channels, with further media coverage and potential speaking opportunities at NCL events.

'The One Club created its own inclusion and diversity department nearly 20 years ago, and has steadily increased programming around gender equity in the workplace,' said Kevin Swanepoel, CEO, The One Club. 'Next Creative Leaders is an important part of our programming because it identifies, elevates, and gives voice to those who are making a real difference, those who are opening the door and inspiring the next generation of creatives who follow in their footsteps.'
