Beyond Green IT: Harnessing ICT to Enable Carbon Footprint Reduction

Lawrence Surtees is the Vice-President & Principal Analyst, Communications Research for IDC Canada, and is one of Canada’s leading Green IT researchers.

Canadian firms are going Green in the datacenter and beyond, but a dearth of available information limits meaningful carbon footprint reduction. IT and business executives are asking about all the assets and technologies at their disposal as well as the business and economic impact of being 'Green'.

Come and join Lawrence as he debates and discusses the impact of technology on the environment, including the latest research highlighting the value and importance of being Green. Lawrence also discussed the capital and operational investments Canadian businesses are making to reduce their carbon footprint.
