#Climate #Innovation #LandAndWater #Finalists
Innovation Zero #Awards was designed with a sustainable corporate buyer's lens. The competition was fierce, with top-notch entries and slim margins separating winners from finalists. Thus, all finalists earn recognition as genuine winners, carrying the "seal of approval" from corporate procurement and climate experts.
Therefore, I want to celebrate finalists across all Awards categories, starting with Land&Water. Note and follow these companies because they are building a NetZero future👏
