    Many of the key challenges we face today are complex and multidimensional. Climate change and sustainability are prime examples. Addressing such challenges will require a radical rethinking of our foundational infrastructures, including how we engineer, measure, and operate them, as well as how we understand the value they create and the values that guide their evolution. This session will explore two such areas: sustainable aviation and digital platforms. It will examine recent developments in how they are engineered and consider their emerging roles within the broader system.
