Autotech Council’s Spotlight Series, hosted by Avanta Ventures, features a handful of interesting startups working in a single industry segment followed by an interactive conversation on the topic led by a few member experts.
The automotive industry has always been under the spotlight when it comes to pollution. This scrutiny is one of the reasons carmakers and their tier 1 vendors are relatively aggressive in their measures to reduce pollution and now Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in their own factories and production processes. But a more comprehensive look at ALL the GHG emissions from a car requires not just the GHG emitted by driving the car, but the sum of all the GHGs from the production and logistics of that car up and down its supply chain - the so-called “Scope 3 Emissions.”
In this 90-minute, virtual meeting, we look at sustainable procurement GHG transparency all along the supply chain. We’ll discover startup technology that can measure, account and reduce of all the GHG from a car’s production so carmakers and their T1 vendors can meet regulatory requirements and seek competitive advantages in the marketplace. This meeting starts with technology pitches across measurement, lowering GHG, logistics, digital twin experimentation, and more, and ends with a roundtable discussion among the startups, members, and attendees who have questions and insight around making the auto industry more sustainable.

Autotech Council's Spotlight Series, brought to you by Avanta Ventures, is a series of virtual meetings that introduce startups and ideas at the cutting edge of mobility and include an interactive discussion among speakers, members, and attendees. This month, startups are working in the Sustainable Procurement segment.
