Kirloskar and CNN mark 15 years of successful partnership around key environmental themes

HONG KONG, Aug. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Kirloskar, a leading multi-engineering conglomerate in India, celebrates its 15^th consecutive year of partnership with CNN International Commercial (CNNIC) focused on a commitment to the environment.

At the heart of this enduring collaboration lies Kirloskar's sponsorship of CNN's Going Green initiative, a series that showcases cutting-edge green technologies and explores innovative solutions for a sustainable tomorrow. Over the past 15 years, through this partnership Kirloskar has reached global audiences including more than 700 million environmentally conscious viewers and over 270 million business decision-makers to foster a deeper understanding of sustainable innovations.

This year's campaign centers around Kirloskar's sponsorship of two Going Green shows airing on CNN International in August and November, which features sustainable innovations, visionary inventors and influential leaders who are devoted towards finding solutions to some of the most concerning environmental challenges. The first show traces the life cycle of food, from the seeds sown in the ground, to where it all goes once it's been consumed. Additional content highlighting the green agenda, also sponsored by Kirloskar, will also be available across CNN's TV, digital and social platforms.

"Our long-standing partnership with Kirloskar is a resounding testament to our unwavering commitment to working with partners on important sustainable and environmental issues," said Cathy Ibal, Senior Vice President, CNN International Commercial.
