Description
The de-risked path to successful factory build:
Scaling clean technologies rarely fails because of innovation alone. Most projects encounter challenges around industrialisation, financing, permitting and execution. Europe’s competitiveness depends on reducing risk and accelerating deployment.
In Session A, experts explore the milestones and risks that shape a credible investment case for a first factory. Three entrepreneurs then present their projects at the pre-FID stage, giving participants the opportunity to assess the cases, challenge assumptions and vote on the investment decisions.
What this session delivers:
A practical understanding of what needs to be in place before committing to a first factory investment, from financing and engineering readiness to planning for industrial delivery.
Please note: Participation in this track is limited to 200 attendees. We encourage early registration to secure your spot.
