Creating a sustainable future: The leadership challenge of our time
Responding to climate change is no longer optional. To tackle the climate crisis, sustainability must become a central part of our corporate cultures. And to make that happen, the world needs courageous and inspiring leaders. In this keynote, Göran Carstedt looked at how business leaders can align company and individual purpose in ways that invite people to be part of the solution and take action on issues worthy of their full commitment — like building a more sustainable future.

Technology in sustainability: A profitable business to fix the future
Oriol Tauleria and Jordi Medina
Sustainability, instead of a company's shiny label or a cost center, is an opportunity to solve the needs of customers in a different way - a new (and better) way to generate value. Holaluz’s purpose is to connect people to green energy. In this session, Jordi and Oriol shared how Holaluz has used sustainability as a business driver, and what they have learned about engagement, disruption and technology along the way.
