In this session, we will explore how leveraging data, and technology can drive sustainability initiatives and enhance security measures. We will discuss the critical role of data in addressing environmental challenges, improving resource efficiency, and ensuring secure and sustainable operations. Attendees will gain insights into best practices, innovative solutions, and real-world examples of how data-driven approaches can contribute to a more sustainable and secure future.

* **Talk 2 - "Responsible & Green AI" by Jonny Mauland, Nordic Tech Sustainability Lead and Sofie Nergaard Tetzell, Norway Tech Sustainability Lead at Accenture Norway**. AI is a rapidly advancing field with immense potential for innovation and positive impact, such as supporting the green transition, but it also brings environmental costs and risks of unethical or biased outcomes. This talk explores the importance of addressing these challenges by adopting Green AI principles to minimize resource consumption and applying Responsible AI guidelines to ensure ethical, fair, and transparent use of the technology.
