Advancing sustainable technologies in industry represent both opportunities and challenges in today’s transforming world. As we are facing growing social, economic, energy, and environmental challenges, how can new technologies have an impact and offer a path to a better world? From the very small nano-level research to macro-economics topics, we will explore through examples and concrete research programs how experts are innovating for sustainability. In this conference you’ll learn how organizations are adapting to this transforming world. You’ll also listen to experts discussing the impact of technology on sustainability and how corporations, academia and startups can work together to tackle today’s challenges with the environment and energy transition.
