Sustainability as a Business Opportunity

 

Sustainability is at the forefront of consumer, business and government priorities as we’re all united in a collective responsibility to care for the planet's health for future generations. The global tech industry has come under intense scrutiny for its considerable impact on the planet, accounting for 2-3% of the world's CO2 emissions, according to UN data. 

But as an industry that champions innovation, creativity and rapid pace, there is no better sector primed to provide solutions and demonstrate tangible results.
