TOPICS:

• Tech-optimism – Can we do anything because technology will save us from a climate catastrophe anyway?
• Knowledge, time, and money? – What else is needed for green tech?
• From brown to green? – Who will finance polluters?
• Unknown technologies; is it worth investing in them?
• Is it time for a technological shift in energy, transport, or the construction industry?
• Transition risk with technological improvement – Hundreds of thousands of jobs could be transformed
• Digitalisation above all – An ideal carbon-neutral world
• Who has the data, has the power
• The future is in a circular economy – From the construction industry to battery and plastic production

The green transition and reaching climate neutrality are impossible without technology; accordingly, we are organising, for the first time in 2023, this conference. Be it any area of the economy, innovations, digitalisation, and technologies which are now perhaps yet unknown, are our most efficient tools to live from now on without polluting the environment.

However, there are challenges: the time factor, financing, return on investments, regulations, greening industries and even working on improving the technical implementations. This conference is precisely about overcoming these barriers, aiming to bring together the best sustainable technology solutions for zero emissions and to help shape the mindset and collective thinking of market players.
