Description
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a water-intensive technology, yet it also holds a key to helping technology companies curb their dependence on increasingly scarce water resources. This is exemplified by data center companies that are supporting the AI boom while employing the technology to help significantly reduce their water use in the process. This webinar will focus on how AI is helping these companies promote water circularity in their operations, and the case for using these strategies and others to reduce water risk in their business, as well as for their high-tech company clients and investors. In this webinar, participants will: - Gain insights into the potential for AI and other strategies to improve the tech industry’s resiliency to water-related challenges - Explore investors’ increasing interest in AI as part of tech companies’ water risk mitigation strategies - Identify unique collaborations and partnerships to advance water management strategies in the high-tech industry Speakers: - Kirsten James, Senior Program Director, Water, Ceres - Emilio Tenuta, Senior Vice President of Corporate Sustainability and Chief Sustainability Officer, Ecolab - Jonathan Bey, Senior Analyst, NEI Investments - Aaron Binkley, Vice President of Sustainability, Digital Realty ADA Reasonable Accommodation Requests: If you would like to request reasonable accommodations under the ADA, please complete this Ceres Events Request for ADA Reasonable Accommodation form: https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/2c81ca5b00624383b3d6a9849abe88fa By registering for this event, you grant Ceres rights to use resulting event photography, film, and recordings, and any reproductions or adaptations of the photography and recordings for fundraising, publicity or other purposes to help achieve Ceres’ goals.
