Sustainability LIVE London Global Summit

Sustainability LIVE: Net Zero

When: 6 and 7 March 2024
Where: QEII Centre, London

On 6 and 7 March 2024, Sustainability LIVE: Net Zero arrived at the QEII Centre for a two-day conference that explored the importance of reaching net zero.

Across the two days, attendees could engage in a range of keynote presentations and panel discussions from several internationally acclaimed organisations, such as Microsoft, Procter & Gamble, DP World and Deloitte.

I was privileged to speak at Sustainability LIVE's Net Zero event and was impressed by the organisation and professionalism of the event team.

The organisers demonstrated a strong commitment to sustainability and created a platform that fostered meaningful discussions and insights on achieving net zero targets. Their dedication to promoting sustainability initiatives was truly commendable and I was honoured to be a part of such a well-executed event. In particular, the agenda and richness of speakers was well thought out and delivered great value.

Sustainability LIVE Singapore

When: 19 March 2024
Where: Singapore (virtual)

Designed to enhance connections between the leading sustainability executives in Singapore, Sustainability LIVE Singapore propelled innovation, awareness and action toward moulding a better tomorrow.

The virtual event acted as a platform for innovators, start-ups and consumers to share their latest advancements in the industry and discover how they can enhance their sustainability agenda in the future.

I was honoured to participate in Sustainability LIVE Singapore as a keynote.

The team was very engaging and great to work with. I was given the opportunity to choose the topic for the keynote, which was Sustainability and Inequality, a little explored, but a significant sustainability issue.

The team was very supportive of this topic and its resonance. This type of virtual event caters to a regional audience on such an important issue as sustainability, which is commendable.

Sustainability LIVE London Global Summit

When: 10 and 11 September 2024
Where: Business Design Centre, London

Arriving at the BDC for a two-day hybrid conference, Sustainability LIVE London Global Summit provided an exclusive opportunity for attendees to participate in a range of workshops, fireside chats, keynote presentations and panel discussions that helped to shape the future of sustainability.

In addition to hosting a diverse agenda, Sustainability LIVE London 2024 also saw the launch of the inaugural Global Sustainability & ESG Awards, celebrating the incredible startups, organisations and individuals that consistently ensure that innovation and excellence lie at the heart of their work.

It was incredible to connect with such a diverse and driven group of individuals and organisations dedicated to tackling the urgent challenge of climate change.

I was particularly excited by the focus on solutions, including how AI can be a powerful tool, such as optimising energy grids and building climate resilience in vulnerable communities.

Sustainability LIVE provides a vital platform for these critical conversations and I left feeling inspired by the collective commitment to a sustainable future

Where: UK (virtual)

Making its debut appearance in 2024, Sustainability LIVE: Diversity & Inclusion took place on 12 November — an engaging virtual conference that explored how we can drive collaboration, drive innovation and create a resilient sustainability plan.

Throughout the day, attendees had the exclusive opportunity to hear from executives from organisations such as Rakuten TV, Roche Group and Carlsberg, as they explored how embracing diversity and inclusion can promote social justice and secure equitable participation in sustainability efforts.
