Through the SACC collaboration with Premium Member ABB in partnership with Engineers Australia, we invite members and guests to join us for events in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney to discuss the challenges and opportunities identified in ABB’s latest research report ‘Progressing Sustainability in Australian Business‘. The research focuses on sustainability in Australian business, based on 350+ responses from leaders around the country.
The events will feature a panel of business and sustainability experts from leading companies. The discussion will focus on several critical questions:
- What are the top barriers to sustainability investment for Australian businesses?
- How do we address them
- What does it take to be a sustainability leader?
- The role of technology in driving commercial outcomes and encouraging uptake
On the panel in each city, we have:
Brisbane
- James Squire, Senior Project Manager, Cross River Rail
- Paul Gleeson, Group Director – Sustainability, Aurecon
- Mario Macri, Head of Smart Buildings & Smart Power Divisions, ABB
Melbourne
- Freya Marsden, Non-Executive Director and Chair of Risk, Optimisation and Sustainability
- Dev Chandraratne, Sustainability Advisor, SPARK North-East Link
- Mario Macri, Head of Smart Buildings & Smart Power Divisions, ABB
Sydney
- Darryl Stuckey, Head of Environmental Sustainability, Lend Lease
- Johanna Walton-Hespe, Net Zero and ESG Lead, Arup Australasia
- Kelvin Wong, Commercial Lead, Electrification, ABB Australia
We are looking forward to member’s participation and that the report gives valuable insights into how Australian business is tracking on sustainability.
It will conclude with networking drinks and refreshments. Join us at the Engineers Australia venue in either city as we delve into these findings and initiate a dialogue on how to advance sustainability in Australian businesses.
