Description

Sustainability in the Asian century

How will sustainable growth and environmental protection be achieved as Asia’s primacy increases?

Sustainable Business Australia (our stream partner) has arranged this stream’s program, so you will be treated to insights from the industry’s top speakers.

Managing the environment is now influenced by political will, decision-making based on economics, global uncertainty and social pressures such as the rise of the middle class across Asia.

Does the model of state capitalism offer hope or challenge for sustainability? How will business respond to these new paradigms?

The ‘Sustainability in the Asian century’ stream at EcoForum gives business leaders and professionals a chance to openly discuss how ‘business as usual’ will need to shift to accommodate sustainable growth and environmental protection in the Asia–Pacific.

Session attendees will experience an inspirational keynote speaker that will set the tone and challenge listeners, explore options for change during a ‘mind spa’, network with other professionals and speakers informally and using a ‘mind map’, and hear from local and international experts about fresh and innovative approaches.

Description

Established on almost 14 hectares of campus inspired grounds, and featuring a unique integration of heritage architecture, premium commercial space and state-of-the-art conferencing facilities, the Australian Technology Park is proud host to leading Australian and global IT, communications and science companies.

Since its inception, the Park has evolved into one of the nation’s pre-eminent technology and business precincts. The Park offers a unique and inspiring environment for collaboration, information exchange and knowledge-sharing, while ongoing site development and an ever-expanding tenant portfolio secure the Park’s position at the forefront of Australian technology growth and commercialisation.

Conceived by a consortium of Sydney universities in 1995 and wholly-owned by the New South Wales Government’s Redfern-Waterloo Authority, the Park is located just a few kilometres away from Sydney’s CBD and international airport on a site once occupied by the Eveleigh Railway Yards.
