Description

The UK defines 'tech for good' as "the use of digital technology to address a global or social challenge by creating a positive digital innovation or intervention." An organisation is referred to as 'tech for good' if its core mission or purpose is intentionally aiming to benefit society or the environment, enabling people to live healthier and more sustainable lives.
We require a supplier to provide a report on tech that is addressing pressing social and environmental challenges in China. This will include a broad stroke overview of central government strategies and activity in key sectors followed by a deep dive into a priority sector. We would like this work to focus only on Chinese activity that is addressing social challenges within green tech, agri tech, health tech and education tech.
