ASPEn Enterprise Launch

Asia-Scotland Partnerships for the Environment (ASPEn) desires to build strong relationships between Scotland and the Asia-Pacific that are firmly grounded in good social and environmental practice. Sustainable development across the world is one of the greatest challenges faced today, we must be able to find a balance with our society and our environment so they can both prosper.We are building a simple and streamlined online interface that will be populated with SMEs, startups, NGOs plus academic and public institutions. This will be a facilitated networking tool to allow dynamic project collaboration, knowledge sharing and network development. We are working with clients to establish pilot market research projects in India, China and Cambodia utilizing the online tool.

ASPEn Asia-Scotland Partnerships for the Environment

The official launch of ASPEn, Asia-Scotland Partnerships for the Environment, as a social enterprise. Our goal is to encourage sustainable development by fostering a two-way dialogue between Scotland and the Asia-Pacific. With over half the worlds population living in Asia and many of those living in poverty, development coupled with good social and environmental practice is one of the great complex challenges of today. 
ASPEn will build and develop international partnerships through a streamlined online interface. This will be a facilitated networking tool to allow dynamic collaboration, knowledge sharing and network development. We will actively manage this network, partnering groups working on similar projects that have solid foundations for international collaboration.
We are delighted to welcome Roddy Gow, OBE, Chairman of the Asia Scotland Institute, to introduce the significance of sustainable development in Asia. Mr. Gow will be followed by a word from our supporters, the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce.
The ASPEn team, Ewan Tennant and Peter Hannay, will present the work and vision of ASPEn, plans for the upcoming research tour in India and China and how we will support a globally integrated approach to sustainable development and climate change mitigation.
Change through collaboration.
