Info
UNIDO is a specialized agency of the United Nations with a unique mandate to promote, dynamize and accelerate industrial development. Our mandate is reflected in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 9: “Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation”, but UNIDO’s activities contribute to all the SDGs. UNIDO’s vision is a world without poverty and hunger, where industry drives low-emission economies, improves living standards, and preserves the livable environment for present and future generations, leaving no one behind. UNIDO provides support to its 172 Member States through four mandated functions: technical cooperation; action-oriented research and policy-advisory services; normative standards-related activities; and fostering partnerships for knowledge and technology transfer. Our work is concentrated on three focus areas: - ending hunger by helping businesses from farm to fork; - stopping climate breakdown by using renewable energy and energy efficiency to reduce industrial greenhouse gas emissions; and - supporting sustainable supply chains so that developing country producers get a fair deal and scarce resources are preserved.

During his visit to Japan, UNIDO’s DG Gerd Müller met with Minister Saito Ken, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan and Parliamentary Vice-Minister Hosaka Yasushi, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, to express appreciation for the long-standing strong relationship between #UNIDO and #Japan and for the new quality of cooperation with two new major initiatives funded by Japan for recovery in #Ukraine and for sustainable development in countries of the Global South. He also met with the Chairman of JETRO - Collaborate & Invest Japan Ishiguro Norihiko. #JETRO will partner with UNIDO to implement the initiatives, facilitating technology transfer with Japanese companies, while UNIDO will facilitate the building of skilled workforces via vocational training in recipient countries. Focus will be on industrial #decarbonization, #cleanenergy, #food security, #digital transformation, and #circulareconomy. Müller noted: “Our joint work also underlines the importance of private sector involvement for sustainable development. We will work with Japanese companies to transfer innovations and low-carbon technologies to the Ukraine and countries of the Global South. Together, we will support the development of micro, small and medium-sized businesses, and the creation of good jobs.” Yuko Yasunaga, Deputy to the Director General and Managing Director of UNIDO, and Fumio Adachi, Head of ITPO Tokyo, who supported and accompanied the Director General during this mission, will lead the implementation of these significant programmes.

Lidar scanning #solutions have never been more #accessible! With this throwback to General Laser’s participation in the #ICONS2024 with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Long Night of Research with the UNIDO Digital Transformation & AI Strategies at the United Nations Office at Vienna, we show how #tech breakthroughs can be in sync with #userfriendly design, in both #hardware & #software. GLidar is a truly mighty #laser scanner, with a sampling rate of up to 5.2 million points per seconds and unique ability to deliver instant results, no post processing. Yet, we built it in a way that cutting-edge technical advancement does not hinder the simplicity & elegance of use. Just open the case, attach a Makita battery, connect to the #GLidar’s hotspot with your mobile device, choose your scanning pre-sets, and off you go! Invest in the functionality of your team, making fieldwork of point cloud generation a task that any member of your team can handle. #unitednations #un #laser #laserscanner #LiDAR #3Dmap #digitalmapping #3Dscanning #precisionmapping #digitaltwin #pointcloud #GIS #engineering #infrastructureinspection #infrastructuremapping #datavisualization #construction #urbanplanning #tech #innovation #GeneralLaser #bim
