#Green solutions for process manufacturing across the region – it’s what Japanese MNC Yokogawa’s new Sustainability Incubation Hub aims to do from #Singapore. Singapore is Yokogawa’s regional headquarters for its global industrial automation business and home to its largest R&D centre outside Japan. By launching the Hub, Yokogawa intends to work more closely with regional customers and partners – from public agencies to research institutes, startups and SMEs - to identify, develop and commercialise green technologies to help them achieve sustainability targets. The Hub will bank on Yokogawa’s network in the region to identify, evaluate and potentially acquire green manufacturing technologies. Yokogawa is one of the many Japanese MNCs that use Singapore as base to serve regional and global customers. Marking its Golden Jubilee in Singapore this year, the company has expanded its operations across the entire business value chain over the past five decades – supporting projects in Singapore for infrastructure providers like Tuas Power and PUB, Singapore's National Water Agency. From a manufacturing pioneer to an innovation powerhouse, read about how Yokogawa is now focusing on sustainability R&D from Singapore: https://lnkd.in/g2rd3zkU
