BIG and CBiS Launch CFO Talent Pipeline Program 2026
Bangkok Industrial Gas and the Carbon Institute for Sustainability have partnered to train students in corporate carbon footprint assessment to support Thailand's low-carbon economy.
Bangkok Industrial Gas (BIG), a leader in low-carbon industrial gas innovation, has officially partnered with the Carbon Institute for Sustainability (CBiS) to launch the 'CFO Talent Pipeline Program 2026.' This initiative, operating under the Arun Sorathesn Foundation at Chulalongkorn University's Faculty of Engineering, aims to equip university students with specialized skills in assessing Carbon Footprint for Organization (CFO).
For residents and professionals in Thailand, this program represents a strategic effort to bridge the gap between academic knowledge and the practical requirements of the private sector. As Thailand shifts toward a low-carbon economy, businesses are increasingly seeking expertise in sustainability reporting and environmental impact assessment. By training a new generation of talent, the program intends to provide local companies with the human resources necessary to meet evolving environmental standards.
While the program focuses on educational development and corporate sustainability, it remains to be seen how many students will be successfully integrated into the workforce and how significantly this will impact the broader Thai business landscape. The initiative highlights a growing trend of collaboration between industrial leaders and academic institutions to address climate-related economic challenges. Further details regarding the specific curriculum and long-term placement opportunities for participants are expected to be clarified as the program progresses throughout 2026.
