20 June | Edinburgh
The Summit
The conference will focus on the role of digital technology in driving ESG impact; exploring how innovation in IoT, Analytics, AI and Cloud are helping to improve climate outcomes.
We will showcase examples from key sectors like construction, transport, financial services, and energy, to illustrate where technology is making industry smarter, greener, and more positive for people and the planet.
We will also examine how to mitigate the negative impact of IT. McKinsey estimates that enterprise technology emits between 350-400 megatons of CO2 equivalent gases, approximately 1% of total global emissions. The programme will consider actionable steps to address this and maximise the sustainability of the IT operation.
The Summit is geared for technologists, innovators, and C-level business leaders, and any practitioners working in an end-user role in sustainability, transformation, governance, regulation or social impact as part of their role.
