About the Content
Sustainability is not only a force for good, it’s proven to increase business value. That’s why it’s a high priority for boards of directors. Technology plays a crucial role in business transformation and the development of cleaner energy solutions that customers want and need. For many enterprises, IT spending and the associated energy consumption represent a sizeable portion of their carbon footprint. This is one of many reasons why it makes sense for IT leaders to help drive sustainability efforts. Aligning with enterprise-wide Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) programs are required to achieve goals. This is easier said than done. Join us to learn from our expert panel and participate in our invitation-only peer-to-peer roundtable of 15 senior IT and sustainability leaders from large enterprises in the Houston metropolitan area.
Join us on March 30th as our expert panel discusses ways their teams are developing and implementing a sustainable IT strategy.

- Developing a data and reporting framework for sustainability programs
