The partnership with MRI aligns well with GHD’s global growth strategy
GHD, a leading global professional services company, recently announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Mitsubishi Research Institute (MRI), a Japanese think tank and consulting arm of the Mitsubishi Group. This marks the beginning of a strategic partnership between GHD and MRI in the Middle East.
The global energy transition presents a combination of challenges and opportunities in the Middle East. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations will need to reduce their per capita emissions by as much as seven percent over the next eight years to achieve their emission reduction objectives.
Global growth strategy
The partnership with MRI aligns well with GHD’s global growth strategy, positioning the company for commercial growth in the regional market while also opening doors to new opportunities that place a focus on the drive to realise a net zero future.
With a presence in the Middle East for over 20 years, GHD is a recognised advisor in the region, providing integrated multi-disciplinary services to clients operating across sectors such as Energy & Resources, Environment, Property & Buildings, Transportation, and Water.
“Through our strategic partnership with MRI we look forward to unlocking new opportunities by offering clients innovative and sustainable solutions that address the region’s most pressing energy transition challenges,” affirmed Tom Foley, Future Energy Executive Director EMEA, GHD.
“MRI looks forward to working with GHD in this important region to provide clients with viable solutions backed by policy, business, and technical expertise.”
