After 6 months in development, ACG aims to grow the platform into the leading web-based tool for identifying and making contact with potential clients and partners for companies in the cleantech sector.
The "Cleantech Meeting Space" is free to join, and allows registered companies to make their own company profile page, advertise capabilities and products, search and contact target companies, and post press releases for the rest of the Meeting Space to see.
ACG’s Mike Hugh said, "We are proud to launch the Cleantech Meeting Space, which we hope will become the B2B platform of choice for companies in the solar, fuel cell, wind and smart grid sectors. The tool is free for the cleantech industry to use and the more companies that sign up, the more useful it will be – we invite cleantech companies throughout the supply chain to join."
At the present time, the Cleantech Meeting Space is ready for use by the solar and fuel cell sectors. In the coming weeks, the wind and smart grid sectors will be added.
"Our sector is still evolving. As it does so, its geographical focus is also shifting – witness the rise in importance of the Far East to the sector as a whole. However, a range of challenges hinder East-West cleantech business, not least of which are language, distance, and differences in time zones. It is ACG’s task to help cleantech companies or users wherever their location overcome these barriers and do better business with each other", said Mike Hugh.
"The launch of the Cleantech Meeting Space is a major part of our strategy to realize this goal."
www.asiacleantechgateway.com is created in partnership with PDC Internet Solutions, a UK based web and social media consultancy. Director of PDC Internet Solutions, Gareth Bromby, said “www.asiacleantechgateway.com features a novel content management system (CMS) where Wordpress is used to manage the public page content, and this is integrated into a MySQL database with specialised routines in PHP and ASP. A Wordpress module, integrated into the standard template, is used to deliver the web site in Chinese and Japanese as well as in English.”
“The site uses advanced web 2.0 technologies, including a custom-built meeting space with jQuery Ajax Search Functionality.”
