Program Approach
The Greeninfotechsummit will address the key business, technical and legal challenges and/or drivers of Green IT/Sustainable Computing.The paragraph below encapsulates the spirit of the summit.

"Don’t be fooled: Green IT is as much about the greenbacks as it is about reducing the environmental impact of operating IT and the business. In fact, financial motivation — not environmental motivation —is the driving force behind the pursuit of greener IT. So when asking yourself whether green IT has financial merits, the short answer is yes — but IT leadership must understand why and how this is achieved to invest time and capital wisely." (Forrester Research).

• Conference with Presentations given by industry leading End User’s/Practitioners from both the Private and Public Sectors respectively.
