Vera Meinert is a data scientist and innovation driver at the technology consultancy Collaboration Betters the World GmbH.

- How can we implement a data-driven Sustainability that enables companies to clearly identify fields and actions for sustainable business value creation?

When one thinks about equality in the tech environment, the first thing that comes to mind is that few women find their way into technology.
But why is that even relevant? And why does equality matter even in a seemingly completely rational world?
This talk shows examples that led to the discrimination of certain groups in society and gives ideas on how problems of this kind can be solved in an actionable and easy way.
Talk was held in English but can be given in German, too.

This talks focused on how to start your sustainability transformation with a data-driven approach setting the necessary foundation thorugh an efficient, user-centric data management and the necessary responsibilities and processes.
Measuring your sustainable footprint is the starting point but not an end in itself. Combining a long-term strategy with an iterative approach focussing on short-term impact-driven actions and measures will quickly show success. This is how to pave the path for a long-term transformation while ensuring short-term added value.
