Agoria ''As-a-service models for a green transition'' event

Over the past few years, European manufacturing sector has developed a wide range of as-a-service business models to deliver more value to the customer in the most resource efficient way by selling access instead of ownership, in various sectors ranging from machinery to equipment for transport, energy, heating, cooling, lighting, water treatment etc.  
‍

These models are increasingly being recognised as an important sustainability lever. They incentivise suppliers to build highly efficient, durable, and long-lasting equipment and allow customers to access the most efficient equipment and decarbonise their process without the use of capital investments, whilst being unburdened from operation and servicing responsibilities.

To bring together both suppliers and customers, Agoria is organising this networking and matchmaking event on "as-a-service models for a green transition" on Monday 26 June in Brussels.
