CARBON FOOTPRINT IT & DATA CENTRES SUMMIT
21st October 2007

CARBON FOOTPRINT IT & DATA CENTRES SUMMIT
26-27 NOVEMBER, KENSINGTON, LONDON

 
 WWW.CARBONFOOTPRINT-IT.COM

This summit will help to realise the quick-wins and long-term strategies for reducing energy cost, improving efficiency and productivity, increasing space utilisation and decreasing your carbon footprint.
 
Tackling the energy crisis in IT infrastructure and data centres is increasingly becoming the key challenge for those already managing the fine balance between efficiency and productivity in both the demand and supply-sides of IT, in major organisations and brands across the world. The growing demand to consider the "carbon footprint" of the facilities and equipment, along with the spiraling energy costs, has led to increasing pressure on the senior IT directors and their counterparts in finance, CSR, environment and energy departments to manage the enormous cost and risk implications of not acting immediately to consider both the quick-wins and long-term design requirements for a lower carbon (and cost) future.
 
This Summit will address the commercial drivers for organizations to invest in sustainable IT systems and will provide senior level IT executives with leading-edge information for ensuring environmental good practices are embedded into the management and running of IT infrastructures and data centres.
 
A unique end-user speaker panel will deliver impartial and practical perspectives from:
Peter Hambling, CIO, Lloyds of London
John Carey, IT Director, Scottish Widows
Angela Morrison, IT Director, J Sainsbury
Steve O'Donnell, Global Head of Data Centres, BT
Paul Cattrell, European Data Centre Manager, Unilever
Mark Popolano, CTO, Reed Elsevier
Chris Walker, CTO Saatchi & Saatchi Interactive
Peter Pedersen, CTO, Rank Group
and many more from their counterparts at the likes of Tesco, E.ON, HM Revenue & Customs and Legal & General.
