Technology: A catalyst influencing business strategies and improving environmental performance
Corporate interest in sustainability is greater than ever before. Pressing environmental concerns, federal targets and consumer demand are amplifying the need for businesses to adopt sustainable practices. As more businesses look to reduce waste, improve efficiencies, and cut down on greenhouse gasses, new business models and technological advances are unlocking new opportunities and opening doors that foster economically and environmentally sustainable business practices.
Over a series of events, we are taking an in-depth look at key sustainability issues and how they are influencing businesses and business strategies.
This event will investigate how technology is changing the way we do business and will explore how businesses leverage technology to lead the charge on sustainability and boost business performance.
Whether businesses are greening their supply chains or developing innovative products that transform industries, technological advances are rapidly enhancing businesses' ability to improve efficiencies, minimize risks and offer solutions to pressing environmental concerns.
