Championing Industry Transformation: AGC Glass Europe CEO Co-signs Declaration at European Industry Summit
Jean-Marc Meunier, the CEO of AGC Glass Europe, made a significant impact at the European Industry Summit hosted at BASF in Antwerp, where he played a pivotal role in co-signing the Declaration advocating for a genuine EU Industrial Deal. AGC Glass Europe is actively pursuing its Carbon Roadmap, a strategic initiative aimed at decarbonizing flat glass manufacturing across Europe, marking a paradigm shift in the company’s glass production methods. However, the realization of these ambitious endeavors hinges upon the European Union’s commitment to fostering enabling conditions for innovation, growth, and investment.
Taking part in the CEO Roundtable, under the esteemed chairmanship of the Prime Minister of Belgium, Alexander De Croo, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Jean-Marc Meunier addressed critical topics such as low carbon glass, the imperative for affordable and abundant low carbon energy, and underscored the crucial role of keeping industries within Europe. He emphasized that the industrial sector holds the key to delivering the climate solutions and products vital for Europe’s sustainable future.
This high-profile event, organized under the auspices of the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the EU, serves as a platform to shape the agenda of the upcoming European Commission.
