This year, the third edition of the Sustainability Symposium will be organized! During this event interesting speakers from different companies will give us insights in how sustainability can be incorporated within businesses. Business practices across all industries have a certain impact on society and the environment. How can companies shape their business model and behaviour to make this impact positive? At this event, the participating companies aim to answer that question.
This night’s theme will be ‘The Growing Value of Water’. Cheap as it is, for decades, water has been highly undervalued. Yet now, in times where the world population is increasing, clean water is getting more and more scarce. Clean water is a crucial driver for human health and it is essential to life. We need water for consumption, energy, agriculture, industry and recreation and therefore, it is a major driver of economic development. With this increasing scarcity, what are companies doing to reduce their water usage and water footprint? What challenges and opportunities do companies face when using water throughout their business processes? Is water going to be the new oil, or are we going to find ways to deal with this scarcity?
To kick-off the symposium, the participating speakers will introduce themselves and their company. We will hear about their vision, current practices, and goals. Afterwards the speakers will engage in a discussion about the opportunities and challenges concerning water. Finally, we will have a Q&A session in which you can ask your questions!
The following companies will participate in the Sustainability Symposium 2023:
