John O'Neill, representing Hub360.ie, recently shared his insights as a guest speaker at the launch of Bord na Móna's Accelerate Green initiative. John focused on Hub360's experience as a participant in the Accelerator Green Program, providing key takeaways for businesses considering applying for the program.

The Accelerator Green Program, designed for businesses driving industry change and committed to positive climate impact, proved to be an ideal fit for Hub360. Having successfully entered the program last year, Hub360 benefited from its structure, peer to peer learning and mentoring specifically tailored to support companies contributing to a sustainable transition to the green economy.

At the event John highlighted the instrumental role the program played in helping Hub360 identify the areas where their technology could make the most meaningful impact. Access to experts through the Accelerator Green Program enabled Hub360 to chart a clear path forward. Through this process, Hub360 determined that its primary focus would be on the construction industry, recognizing the significant potential for positive change in a sector where digital adoption has been comparatively slow.

Today, Hub360 is actively contributing to positive change in construction and demolition management, addressing a critical environmental concern. Construction and demolition currently constitute the largest waste stream in the EU, accounting for a third (374 million tonnes) of total waste generated. Hub360's technology is positioned to play a crucial role in better managing this waste. The company has embarked on a journey to support SMEs in the construction industry with the Hub360 Driver App solution, a robust and all-encompassing solution crafted specifically for businesses engaged in tipper, ready mix, and bulk delivery operations. This application is designed to enhance operational efficiency, streamline processes, save valuable time, and ultimately reduce costs in the day-to-day running of these businesses.

Basically, The Accelerator Green Program was a fundamental support to Hub360 in defining its commitment to making a lasting impact and facilitating a sustainable future in the construction sector.
