Session 6: What is the policy mix needed for future production?

Technology can open great opportunities for sustainable development, but technology alone cannot render a better future. The creation and deployment of sustainable production and consumption models at a global scale will require accelerated learning – in policy, business, finance and workforce development.

Global collaboration and engagement are increasingly relevant, as most of the challenges we face today are global. Our opportunities for investment and business are also global and results can be optimized if global platforms for collaboration, technology deployment and learning are made available.

  • How can investments in sustainable projects be unlocked? What frameworks and tools are needed?
  • What types of alliances and coalitions involving industry, government and academia are needed?
  • What global platforms for collaboration are missing?
