Sponsors - Siemens

Climate change is challenging the whole world – and in the UK, there is a growing demand to make environmental sustainability a reality. For example, demanding targets have been set for government operations to become carbon-neutral, whilst the 'credit crunch' shows how managing energy costs is simply good sense. Having a lower cost base than your competitor supports the sustainability of your business operations: aligning corporate strategy and corporate responsibility in a common cause.

Siemens IT Solutions and Services has extensive experience in providing outsourced services and customised, sustainable IT and business solutions. As the only leading IT partner embedded within a global integrated technology company – with an outstanding environmental portfolio – we also have an unrivalled understanding of our clients' operations across both public and private sectors.

Accordingly, recognising their different needs, cost drivers, investment capacity and market positions, we are already building client-specific engagements to address energy use across their whole operations. As their IT partner, we will provide real-time data reporting; identify where enhanced use of IT can reduce the environmental load across the organisation; and show how IT can support their drive for sustainability and improved competitiveness.

Siemens – transforming IT into business value.

Solution Provider session Synopsis

In this session, Siemens will outline its sustainability methodology alongside its wider portfolio for environmental protection, recognising that ICT alone will not meet demands for a low-carbon economy. It will emphasise the need for board-level leadership if public and private sectors are to meet critical environmental challenges – concluding with insights and guidance gained from its experience to date.
