Safer cities: balancing public safety and privacy

How to use technology to better tackle complex public safety issues.

This webinar, hosted by Cities Today Institute, brings together a panel of technology and public safety expert speakers. They will share their insights and experience handling public safety challenges like increasing violent crime and traffic fatalities and the role technology plays.

During this webinar we will explore how cities are:

  • Using data, cameras, and sensors to improve public safety
  • Integrating public safety systems into existing streetlight infrastructure
  • Engaging with residents to ensure trust and transparency
  • Developing policies for the governance of technology and data
  • Funding technology deployments

Energy from Waste Conference 2022 @ Copthorne Tara Hotel
Dec 5 – Dec 6 all-day

The developments that are needed in technology, financing and infrastructure to fast track the growth of the industry in a carbon free world

SAE Media Group is delighted to present the return of the 15th annual Energy from Waste conference taking place on the 5 -6 December 2022 back in London, UK.

Waste conference will bring together international waste management operators, developers, bankers, private equity financiers, technology providers and industrial end users for two days of intensive networking, discussing developments that are needed in technology, financing and infrastructure to ensure the solutions are available to fast track the growth of the industry worldwide.

With case studies from the leading Energy from Waste plants within UK and Europe the event will give an overall look into all aspects of running a successful facility. We delve deep into both small scale and large-scale production and understand the benefits and constraints found within both size projects, in addition to finding out how new innovations can maximise value and optimise investment returns.

A focus on how Energy from Waste sits within the UK’s ambition on the road to net zero and how technology within the Carbon capture and storage market coupled with the evolvement and implementation of district heating is an essential part of that journey. With updates on how legislation and policy can stimulate more investment this comprehensive conference remains an essential calendar date for those in the Energy from Waste community

Benefits of attending:

  • Witness case studies giving updates on the challenges and opportunities facing Energy from Waste projects in England, Sweden, Norway, Turkey, The Netherlands, Scotland and Poland
  • Learn of the technical challenges of optimising output from energy from waste plants and the compatibility of EFW with CCS and Hydrogen production
  • Determine the trends, innovations and challenges of sustainable financing
  • Uncover how carbon pricing can drive a more circular economy where resource productivity is higher and waste leakage lower.
  • Understand the key economics of financing EFW plants and how they differ from other types of renewable generation
  • Gain an in depth understanding of the opportunities that CCS technology has for Energy from Waste industry
  • Discover if the EFW market in the UK is at capacity and where it is heading

2024 ITF Summit @ Leipziger Messe
May 22 – May 24 all-day

 

The annual Summit of the International Transport Forum is the world’s largest gathering of transport ministers and the premier global transport policy event.

Every May, ministers with responsibility for transport, business leaders, heads of international organisations, parliamentarians and policymakers, representatives of business associations and leading researchers meet for three days in Leipzig, Germany, to discuss the future of transport through the prism of a strategic topic.

Summit participation has grown to over 1200 participants from more than 80 countries, well beyond the 66 member countries of the ITF. It increasingly attracts business participants, with CEOs joining high-level discussions and companies presenting their work in the Summit exhibition or sponsoring the event. The annual meeting of the ITF Corporate Partnership Board is held as part of the Summit

The 2024 ITF Summit on Greening Transport: Keeping Focus in Times of Crisis will take place from 22 to 24 May in Leipzig, Germany, under the Presidency of Lithuania, with Chile and Azerbaijan as first and second Vice Presidents, respectively.

The 2024 Summit will examine the transport sector’s role in environmental sustainability, and assess the impacts of climate, health and geopolitical crises in this context. With transport responsible for 30% of global CO2 emissions and climate change leading to extreme weather events, the urgency for carbon emission reduction is pivotal. The Covid-19 pandemic and geopolitical conflicts have disrupted the transport sector and supply chains, contributing to an energy crisis and environmental challenges. Decision makers are urged to maintain a long-term policy focus amid these crises, leveraging opportunities like cleaner and automated vehicles and digital innovation to promote a greener and more resilient transport sector. Simultaneously, evaluating the environmental risks associated with increased digitalisation is increasingly crucial.
