KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 12): Some 300 exhibitors will be showcasing their eco-friendly products and sustainable initiatives at the International Greentech and Eco Products Exhibition and Conference Malaysia (IGEM) 2022.

Ministry of Environment and Water Secretary General Datuk Seri Dr Zaini Ujang officiated the soft launch ceremony for the event on Wednesday (Oct 12).

In a statement, Zaini said one of IGEM’s attractions this year is the International Electric Mobility Showcase, which features the industry’s latest electric vehicle (EV) models, products and next-generation electrified technology.

“After two years of holding the event virtually, we foresee more visitors will be attending this physical edition.

“This is because we are hosting exclusive programmes to help attendees better understand the impact of climate change and Malaysia’s sustainability goals through technology sharing, in-depth discussions, business matching, and networking opportunities,” he said.

Environment and Water Minister Datuk Seri Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man will formalise the ceremony on Thursday (Oct 13).
