SustainAbility Conference

November 3, 2021 Myriad Crystal Center, Lisbon
#SUSTAINABLEBUSINESS

Overview

The SustainAbility Conference: Technology for Change is an exclusive event organized by Accenture Portugal, aimed to debate a twofold imperative: to use technology more sustainably and as a vehicle for being more sustainable.

From the emerging needs of every business to become more sustainable, to the benefits in adopting technology to achieve this goal, the conference highlighted the need to create meaningful change that’s good for business, society, and the planet.

For those who were present, we hope the conference brought you one step closer to the mission of reimagining, rebuilding, and transforming the global economy into one that benefits everyone.

Replay the Sustainability Conference here and review some of the best highlights.
