The shift towards sustainability, driven by digitalization and the adoption of ESG principles, is a significant global transformation that warrants further exploration and discussion. The impact of recent events, like the unexpected consequences for Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), has led to a shift in thinking around ESG and sustainability. With chemical sales expected to grow, process intensification and a focus on efficiency will be necessary to address issues around energy consumption and waste production. For this series' first episode, Brendan Conley is joined by John Nixon of Siemens Digital Industries Software and John Lusty, the Industry Lead for Energy & Utilities Industry Marketing at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They will discuss the good and the bad we have all seen around sustainability, and where they see opportunities for Siemens DISW to contribute. Today you will learn more about the root problems with ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and Silicon Valley Bank's fall. You will also learn how our species fundamentally transforms as we rethink how we generate, transport, store, and consume energy. Additionally, you will find out more about requirement management for ESG and see if it is the perfect starting point for this digitalization journey.
