Can a company steeped in chemicals, mining, and manufacturing actually make the switch to putting new agriculture, water, and infrastructure businesses at the center?

I recently sat down with Orbia CEO Daniel Martínez-Valle to uncover how the company is evolving, why we should believe in their ability to execute on this aggressive transformation and how they plan to hold themselves accountable. [Contributor Disclosure, Orbia is a KWT Global client].Advancing life around the world is a bold ambition, considering your history as a company.

We are committed to our transformation, and as a testament to that, our new logo is not a static logo – we call it an ImpactMark and it will put our contributions towards people, planet and profit front and center. Each year we will update it with our progress towards optimizing our investments, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and waste, increasing women in management, upskilling our workforce and evolving into an innovative solutions provider.

Our employees, customers, and partners continue to be incredibly important. For our employees, elevating their voices and the impactful work they are already doing is central to this process, and to the expression of who Orbia is going forward. Partners likewise continue to be both valuable contributors and beneficiaries of what we do.
