Join IEMA Europe for a virtual event every second Friday of the month where we discuss relevant topics in the world of Sustainability.
This month, we’re diving deep into the power of Big Data—and how it’s transforming the way organizations tackle sustainability and risk management. We are sure you have heard about Big Data. Investopedia (2024) defines it as large, diverse sets of information that grow at ever-increasing rates. Sounds familiar?
Organisations good governance starts with organising the cumulus of data from suppliers, clients, and customers to have an accurate view of their organisations. With data, we can analyse risks and understand trends. But with such a massive quantity of quantitative and qualitative data, how do we know if we are using it correctly to make correct decisions? Are we complying with legal requirements? Identifying critical risks? Buying sustainably?
In this webinar, we will review big data, what can be considered big datasets, the uses of large datasets, and how big data can help you comply with your legal, ISO, and corporate goals.
Monday 12th May | 12:00PM - 1:0PM BST

Join Yorkshire & Humberside for an engaging webinar on The Green Workplace Revolution: Navigating Sustainability in a Changing Work Landscape.
The world of work has transformed dramatically in recent years, with hybrid and remote working becoming the new normal for many organisations. But what are the real implications of this shift for corporate sustainability, carbon footprints, and employee wellbeing?
At first glance, reduced commuting and lower office energy consumption appear to be clear environmental wins. However, the transition to home-based work also introduces new challenges, such as dispersed energy usage, hidden environmental impacts, and the shifting of responsibility for sustainability from employers to employees.
