Antonio Ng

Antonio has dedicated 20 years of his life leading sustainable design, innovation and strategy for some of the world’s most renowned architecture, engineering and construction firms. But with buildings and construction sector’s global carbon emission remain stubbornly at around 40% year after year, Antonio decided to chart a different course by founding Formwork IO in 2020 with the goal to drastically reduce upfront carbon and Scope 3 emissions in the built environment. Formwork IO applies Whole Life Carbon Thinking to design innovative products that help developers and asset managers win the Net Zero Embodied Carbon race.

My Sustainability Goals for 2023:

To reach carbon neutral in the R&D of our initial paving block product. Personally, I hope to see the development of Hong Kong as regional carbon exchange for both mandatory and voluntary carbon markets.
