Could meat grown from animal cells see an end to factory farming? Can AI, blockchain and fintech take the mental load out of green living? Is hydrogen the future? And is direct air capture technology the answer to reducing carbon dioxide and achieving net zero?
Join Sydney’s top academics and tech entrepreneurs for an evening of big ideas and future-shaping green innovations at Raising the Bar on Tuesday 4 April.
For 1 night only, chose from a line-up of 30 talks, hosted in bars, breweries and live music venues across Haymarket, Ultimo, Surry Hills, Camperdown, Redfern and Eveleigh - all part of Sydney's Tech Central precinct.
Here are our top picks of climate tech talks for curious minds:
- The future of meat is cell-based, not animal - George Peppou, Vow.
New technology is unlocking a way to eat meat without the environmental impact. - How digital tech will make you an eco-consumer - Janet Salem, FootprintLab.
It’s not easy being green – yet. But AI, blockchain and fintech technologies aim to turn us into low carbon consumers. - Vertical farming to feed the world smarter - Paul Millett, InvertiGro. Our global population is growing, more farmable lands are being depleted. How indoor vertical farming can grow a more secure and sustainable food future.
- Hydrogen: a brighter future for energy - Professor Kondo-Francois Aguey-Zinsou, University of Sydney.
How storing solar energy in the form of hydrogen could generate clean energy for everyday life. - AI gets sustainability on the corporate agenda - Jeremy Biggs, Misio. How AI enables trust, transparency and accelerates a sustainable future.
- Carbon dioxide removal – the path to net zero? Professor Deanna D’Alessandro, University of Sydney.
What do we really need to do to reach net zero? Find out how technology like direct air capture, which mechanically removes CO2 from our atmosphere, is vital to stabilising our climate.
