SustainIT is partnering with The European Sustainable ICT Users Forum and Greenstar conferences for SustainIT 2008, to be held on the 22nd and 23rd April in London. 

 

What does Sustainable IT or responsible IT mean to your company? How can you benchmark and learn from your industry peers? 

 

There is a growing spotlight on IT professionals to deliver sustainable solutions to the wider organisation – posing both additional challenges…and opportunities.

 

IT departments should look at this as an opportunity to serve as both a role model and an enabler for a broader set of business sustainability initiatives, that help accelerate their own transformation from support function into a full participator in business strategy.

 

SustainIT is supporting this key industry forum which will seeks to set out clear thinking as to how organisations can adopt a responsible ICT strategy that will:

 

·  Reduce their power bills 

·  Deliver significant business process benefits through intelligent deployment of ICT

·  Increase corporate responsibility

 

The programme will feature an international speaker faculty that will provide IT users with practical insights on how to deploy an intelligent IT strategy that reduces energy consumption.  With a strong focus on the changing of attitudes and behaviour the forum will provide you with an understanding of what best practices is and how you are doing.

With its core aims of delivering practical content, excellent networking and benchmarking opportunities, the latest case studies and lively debates this exciting and topical user forum will provide you with actionable solutions to many of your daily challenges, as well as opportunities to meet and exchange ideas with your industry peers
