Sustainability is a broad and popular topic. Renewable energy; energy transition; recycling and the circular economy; climate and environment; water and food – these topics are quickly maturing into fields of their own. But what is next for sustainability? What lies beyond what we now consider sustainable technologies and business practices, and how will they affect your industry? What does emerging government policy suggest will be the hot sustainability topics of the future? Join MIT faculty, researchers, and startups as we review core topics like energy and climate, but also explore new ones, like digital sustainability, sustainability for the built environment, and how we teach sustainability – both to the workforce of the present and the workforce of the future.
MIT Startup Exchange is looking for 3-4 startup speakers to participate in a pre-recorded webcast on April 29 and a possible follow-up live event on May 4, both focused on work of the future.

Organizations and individuals are facing tremendous challenges in today’s workplace. How work gets done, when and where work gets done and now who does the work are key questions that leaders have to tackle. In this symposium we will address the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the future of work. How can new technology tools like generative AI improve productivity and product quality for firms, as well as flexibility and job quality for workers? How can we tackle workforce development in new ways to gear up for this paradigm shift in the workplace?
The 2024 MIT Houston Symposium will gain the insights needed to navigate the dramatic changes driven by global economic forces, emerging technologies, and evolving government policies. This event will explore the transformative power of artificial intelligence (AI), essential workforce development strategies, groundbreaking advancements in manufacturing, shifting international trade patterns, and the impact of recent U.S. legislation on industrial policy.
