Cross sector benefits of harnessing tech for good abound. As identified previously by the S-FOOD network, the potential value unlocked by AI in helping design out waste in a circular economy for food is up to $127 billion a year in 2030. Moving into 2022, S-HUB will therefore aim to scale up these opportunities by working with members to scope out a possible Tech & Sustainability Network in partnership with Accenture (register here for 27th Jan scoping session) seeking to understand how technology and innovation can help accelerate sustainability transformation and impact in the corporate sector.
In March, S-HUB will celebrate its 5-year anniversary. Kicking off the event with an all network debate on regenerative leadership, members and non-members will be invited to exchange ideas and explore new ways of leading and redesigning organisations for positive impact helping to continue this journey of exploration on how to transition from sustainability ambition to integration. As the S-HUB network strategic boards update their programmes of work for 2022, recurring topics connected to issues such as climate change or inequality emphasise the complexity of issues facing business in the 21st century. The pandemic provided us with only a slight insight into the crisis that we could experience should we fail to redress the state of the global commons. Let's step up and act on it together. |
