After gaining unrivaled industry insights, attendees will expand their learning and networking opportunities at the Porsche Experience after-party, tearing around the Porsche test track while building valuable business partnerships.
“Delta is proud to be on the front lines of transforming how we view sustainability. I look forward to sharing our challenges and insights with our industry peers,” said Steve Tochilin, General Manager of Environmental Sustainability at Delta Air Lines.
“We’ve seen the use of data and IoT completely revolutionize the fields of energy efficiency and sustainability management,” said Benjamin Freas, Principal Research Analyst at Navigant Research. “It will be interesting to discuss at SPARK how these changes are having a real impact on executives from a diverse array of industries.”
