Siemens Joins the Global Impact Coalition
Providing technology expertise across chemical value chain sustainability projects.
The Global Impact Coalition (GIC), a CEO-led platform enabling the chemical industry and its value chain to transition to a circular and net-zero chemicals future, announces that the technology company Siemens has joined the coalition as a member. Siemens’ addition greatly strengthens GIC’s growing network of global industry leaders committed to delivering tangible emissions reduction and circularity solutions through collaborative, cross-sector action.
As a global leader in industrial AI, automation, and digital twin technologies, Siemens brings specialized capabilities to support GIC’s mission of turning sustainability ambition into commercially scalable solutions. Through its expertise, Siemens will help optimize operations, reduce emissions, and enable real-time operations monitoring.
Charlie Tan, CEO of the Global Impact Coalition, said: “Siemens joining the Global Impact Coalition is a strong endorsement of our role as a trusted execution platform for industry-wide transformation. GIC exists to move beyond ambition and into delivery — aligning leaders across technology, materials, and energy to co-create solutions that are scalable, bankable, and measurable. This partnership strengthens our ability to turn collaboration into real-world circular and emissions-reduction outcomes.”
Through this collaboration, Siemens aims to contribute its expertise to industry-wide initiatives, including their participation in the continuation of GIC’s Automotive Plastics Circularity project, which focuses on enabling higher-value material recovery and reducing lifecycle emissions.
Axel Lorenz, CEO of Process Automation at Siemens Digital Industries, said: "Joining the Global Impact Coalition underscores our commitment to transformational impact in sustainability. By collaborating with companies throughout the chemical industry's value chain, we amplify our ability to decarbonize industrial processes and deliver traceable, low-emission solutions at scale."
"Industrial AI and digitalization are critical tools in our sustainability toolkit. Through GIC, we’ll accelerate innovation that turns pilot initiatives into replicable, global industrial solutions that meet stringent environmental standards."
The coalition continues to expand its membership and project portfolio to address critical emissions and circularity challenges across the chemical value chain and its upstream and downstream industries.
