Designing A Green Future conference
It is undeniable that sustainable development is a current area that can be discussed day and night, so we had no choice but to roll up our sleeves and organize a conference aimed at sustainable development. We held a one-day conference covering today’s key topics such as green technology, green politics, circular economy, sustainable urban mobility and digitization in agriculture in Zagreb on January 26 at the Wespa Spaces Business & Lounge location.

The conference was attended by renowned speakers such as the owner of a global AgTech firm, Matija Žulja who opened the program with the theme “Will there be food without digital transformation?”. Invento Capital Partners COO, Ivana Čuljak Frshe held a lecture “Financial instruments and support in the development of innovations in the field of urban mobility” in which she informed the participants about urban mobility programs.

The biggest environmental project of Večernji list – Resolution Zemlja was presented by its Project Manager Andrej Ribičić , who, as part of the presentation, presented astonishing figures on the amount of waste collected as part of the project. The end of the program ended with the “Future of Energy” panel, which was discussed by Jurica Perko , REA North Business Development Manager; and Goran Krajačić , professor at the Institute for Power Plants, Energy and Environment – FSB Zagreb.
