About the session

What’s covered

Why creative agility for sustainability professionals is essential in today’s changing times, and how to harness it.

Sustainability pros masterfully adapt to evolving markets & politics by riding tailwinds and rechanneling headwinds. Some say data center growth is outpacing sustainability solutions; our panelists argue failure of imagination is a greater threat. They’ll share novel approaches to:

• Energy Constraints: Reconciling accelerated datacenter/AI growth with energy system constraints
• Limited Sustainable Materials: Securing low-carbon materials
• Aging Climate Goals: Devised decades before AI and the tech boom, is it time to reconsider/revise?
• Economic & Regulatory Uncertainty: Strategic planning in today’s uncertainty

Following discussion, each panelist will lead a roundtable to invite idea generation & co-creation of actionable solutions with attendees.
