• Prepare communication lines to businesses on Singapore\'s resource policies
• Engage companies to implement resource efficiency and emissions reduction projects
• Engage industrial real estate developers and/or energy technology & services companies to identify solutions for businesses

• Understand, assess and develop the right solutions that meet both companies\' needs and Singapore\'s interests
• Engage and co-create solutions with companies in the manufacturing and exportable services sectors, industrial real estate developers and/or energy technology & services providers in both 1-1 and 1-to-many settings
