With the advancing capabilities of technology and promising innovation on the horizon, we have the ability to address, mitigate and solve these challenges. But it requires precision focus, with the right technology being used to solve the right problem at the right time. The partnership between UST and GGI will make that possible, expanding opportunities for our existing clients as well as the industry in general," said Kuruvilla Mathew, Chief Innovation Architect, UST.

"Our advanced solutions and services are oriented towards climate protection, adaptation and resilience by harnessing the power of hard science and heavy technology.
