Chamber of Eco Commerce Launches in Atlanta
December 1, 2010, Atlanta --- The governments, philanthropists, nonprofits, and foundations cannot solve alone the growing challenges of energy, water, food, health, and environment. In addition, the innovators are often small businesses which do not have the resources to tackle large scale problems faced by communities in the developed countries, and over two-thirds of the world's population across the developing world.
In December 2010, the Chamber of Eco Commerce, CEC, launches in Atlanta, London, Helsinki, Beijing and Moscow, seeking to bridge the gap between innovators, investors, businesses, academic institutions and governments to accelerate sustainable innovation and profits, and the efficiency and scale of eco-innovation based solutions. CEC will join AcceleratumHub to bring together individuals and organizations in eco commerce, providing essential trade services and stimulating the economy of the geographic location it serves.
New sustainable business models capable of bringing affordable clean technology solutions to market are now emerging. Many of these small to medium size businesses can create profits, jobs, and lead directly to economic growth. Launching a business that focuses on the sustainable energy, food, water, health, and environment - needs of individuals, organizations and communities seems promising and attractive while daunting in details and obstacles. CEC can make the difference in helping innovators to transfer and implement technologies and transform businesses and industries, and promote innovations to motivated investors, customers, and partners locally across continents.
CEC is a global network with the private sector, governments, NGOs, and philanthropic communities. When appropriate, CEC will invite proposals from innovators and companies that best fit CEC partner projects and stakeholder priorities. CEC operates by providing local business support services to innovators and investors to help them evolve and thrive.
CEC will seek partnerships with investors, governments, academic institutions and corporations through co- investment and public private partnerships. CEC will accelerate and change the way technology impacts industry and individuals at home and abroad.
CEC focuses on maximizing financial returns to both innovators and investors, shared value, and social returns to communities. CEC delivers efficiency in energy and water usage, storage and production, agricultural inputs and food distribution, nutrition and healthy food, paper and packaging, aquaculture, safer materials, health care, housing, and other ET markets.
