Indonesia at the Climate Frontier: Business-Led Pathways for People, Planet, and Prosperity
The Indonesian Business Council (IBC) launched the portfolio book “Indonesia at the Climate Frontier: Business-Led Pathways for People, Planet, and Prosperity” to showcase private sector-driven climate and carbon initiatives. The publication highlights Indonesian companies’ efforts in advancing sustainable solutions, fosters collaboration with stakeholders, and positions Indonesia as a leader in the global green transition. Targeted at diverse audiences—including carbon buyers, investors, philanthropies, research institutions, technology firms, and think tanks—the book amplifies private sector contributions while enhancing visibility and partnerships on both national and international levels.
