Sustainability: Can tech ever be environmentally friendly?

Show Notes

Climate change is front-page news, and rightly so. We've collectively got ourselves into this mess, so can tech help us innovate our way out of it? And how does your organisation play its part?

Join host, Michael Bird, on a journey through the circular economy, from climate science and sustainability strategies to cutting-edge materials innovation with Mateo Dugand. Ray McGann explains how you can shake off the take-make-throw-use model and make the most of the new frontier of asset upcycling.

We look at how governments are incentivising new innovations with Mattie Yeta from DEFRA, and what we can do to hold organisations accountable. Plus, Steve Gair troubleshoots your asset refresh cycles and discusses where you can save money and, most importantly, reduce your environmental impact.

What is Technology Untangled?

Why isn't talking tech as simple, quick, and agile as its innovations promise to be?

Technology Untangled is just that - a show that deciphers tech's rapid evolutions with one simple question in mind: what's really going to shape our future (and what's going to end up in the bargain bin with the floppy disc)?

Join your host Michael Bird as he untangles innovation through a series of interviews, stories, and analyses with some of the industry's brightest brains. No marketing speak, no unnecessary jargon. This is real tech talk from the people who know it inside and out.

Discover which tools and systems are revolutionising the way we do business, what's up next on the endless innovation agenda, and, most importantly, how you can future-proof and get ahead of the curve.
