## First Suppliers Hub Relaunches with Improvements for Increased Collaboration

15 August 2024

The First Suppliers Hub (FSH) is a global marketplace of innovative final products and value chain solutions, with data provided directly by suppliers, that draws forward the emerging technologies needed to decarbonize the world by 2050. The FSH now contains over 100 companies representing more than 170 decarbonization projects across Aluminum, Steel, Cement & Concrete, Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR), Aviation, Shipping, Trucking, and Cross-Sector enablers. The new version will allow suppliers and buyers to connect directly to accelerate the large-scale offtake of low carbon products.The fast-growing FSH has been relaunched on a new platform that allows buyers of low-carbon products and technologies to connect directly with the suppliers who are producing them. The relaunched FSH brings about performance enhancements that will allow for long-term scalability by creating a more interactive user experience with features such as a newsfeed and events portal. This new version of the FSH represents a major step forward in convening purchasing power to decarbonize the world's heavy-emitting sectors.To increase transparency and accessibility, basic project information is available for the public to view and can be accessed here. There is no login required to view projects. The new FSH also allows suppliers to list their project-specific needs - whether that be partnerships, funding, or expertise - and directly edit the information presented in their project and organization pages to update users on progress and new developments. Additionally, suppliers now have the ability to connect with FMC Members who have agreed to share their contact information.With the relaunch of the FSH, its goals remain unchanged: to create essential offtake opportunities for producers, surface the supply of low-carbon products to buyers, assist in identifying financing needs, and inform policy decisions. We thank Deloitte for serving as our technical advisor in both the creation and ongoing expansion of the FSH.All organizations are invited to join the FSH!View Projects: Explore project information here.Follow Projects: Click “Join Us” on the FSH Homepage to create a profile, follow projects, and join the growing communityEngage with the Community: FMC Members, Suppliers, and Implementation Partners can engage directly with each other and share activities and updates by registering via the email sent directly to you.
