Why you should come?

The green transition and reaching climate neutrality are impossible without technology; accordingly, we are organising, for the first time in 2023, the Portfolio Sustainable Tech conference. Be it any area of the economy, innovations, digitalisation, and technologies which are now perhaps yet unknown, are our most efficient tools to live from now on without polluting the environment.

However, there are challenges: the time factor, ﬁnancing, return on investments, regulations, greening industries and even working on improving the technical implementations. The Sustainable Tech conference is precisely about overcoming these barriers, aiming to bring together the best sustainable technology solutions for zero emissions and to help shape the mindset and collective thinking of market players.

Download the Portfolio Events mobile app where you can find Portfolio’s professional events in one app, personalised for you. You can access the event’s detailed programme, the list of participants, and your conference ticket, among other things. We even offer a virtual business card exchange. How?
