Leadership Group for Industry Transition

The Leadership Group for Industry Transition (LeadIT) provides an arena for public-private collaboration, and for sectoral and cross-sectoral learning for example when it comes to innovation opportunities and new technologies. LeadIT enables collaboration between political and industry decision makers by convening high level dialogues to catalyze leadership. LeadIT carries out analysis to improve the collective understanding of the opportunities and challenges in industry transitions. It looks at global examples of industry transitions, as well as at key policy and industry levers to facilitate and manage transitions. LeadIT also supports governments and industries to co-produce stakeholder-led pathways to low carbon industry transformation. It provides actionable measures on innovation and finance and gives a platform for sharing know-how.
