Nalco Co-sponsors B4E Global Summit in Seoul
Nalco (NYSE:NLC) announced it is co-sponsoring the fourth Business for Environment (B4E) Global Summit which is being held April 21-23 in Seoul, Republic of Korea, in conjunction with Earth Day 2010.“Water, energy and air quality are among the critical environmental issues we are facing as a planet,” says J. Erik Fyrwald, Nalco Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Through our involvement in forums such as B4E and our participation in global initiatives such as the United Nations Global Compact and CEO Water Mandate, Nalco seeks to bring our expertise to bear on helping to develop balanced, long-term solutions which benefit the environment, the economy and society.”
Nalco is a Supporting Partner for the summit which will bring together 1,000 people from business, government, international agencies and Non Government Organizations (NGOs) to discuss a variety of environmental challenges and help identify solutions.
“It’s very appropriate the B4E Global Summit has returned to Asia,” says Eric Melin, Nalco Executive Vice President and President Asia Pacific. “The emerging economies throughout the region provide a tremendous opportunity to develop best practices in operating more efficiently and demonstrating environmental stewardship.”
Dr. Manian Ramesh, Nalco’s Chief Technology Officer, will participate in a B4E discussion panel on April 23, on the topic “Water: Innovation and partnership for sustainable water management.” More information about the summit, including a complete agenda, is available at www.b4esummit.com.
