At the high-level dialogue “Advancing Green Infrastructure and Regional Connectivity for Sustainable Development,” Yuan shared Glodon’s perspectives and practices on how digital technologies can support green infrastructure development and the energy transition. He noted that integrated digital platforms are helping building and infrastructure projects move from relatively siloed, stage-by-stage management toward greater integration and collaboration. AI is also creating new opportunities by bringing together industry data, professional expertise, and engineering rules and computational logic to enable more refined project management and smarter decision-making.
On September 2, during a closed-door dialogue on industry-finance cooperation for ASEAN zero-carbon industrial parks, Ji Yatu, Vice President of Glodon, joined representatives from industry and the financial sector to discuss zero-carbon industrial parks, new energy development and closer collaboration between industry and finance.
Throughout the summit, Glodon also hosted a dedicated exhibition booth showcasing its digital practices and achievements across Belt and Road countries and regions. The company also presented its sustainability achievement, Empowering Refined Management of Overseas Projects with Industrial AI and 5D BIM, demonstrating how digital technologies can support more refined project management and high-quality delivery across international projects.
In 2025, Glodon officially joined the United Nations Global Compact, committing to its Ten Principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. In recent years, Glodon has continued to embed ESG into its corporate strategy, technology innovation and operations, exploring how digital technology can create sustainable value in areas including green buildings, low-carbon development, talent development and smart cities. The company has also continued to strengthen corporate governance and transparency through sustainability reporting and ESG assessments.
Going forward, Glodon will continue to engage through multilateral platforms such as the UNGC, contributing to the development of global sustainability standards and the exchange of experience.
