VERGE London – hosted by GreenBiz and SustainAbility – will this Thursday (17th May) bring together business leaders and influencers from government and think tanks, with a clear purpose: to determine how the convergence of energy, information, building and vehicle technologies can further accelerate innovation and the creation of new business models in pursuit of a more sustainable world.

You can join the conversation online at VERGE Virtual, where you can watch keynote sessions as they happen, and contribute questions to the live debates.

VERGE London will draw on the thinking of our Citystates paper in a panel discussion moderated by SustainAbility Executive Director, Rob Cameron.  The session will explore how global metropolitan areas are getting smart and sustainable by integrating emerging technologies, developing innovative public-private partnerships and rethinking what efficiency means for cities.

business leaders should be partnering with mayors to
drive forward sustainable growth.
