Transparancy=sustainability (abstract)

Martijn Van Es

The document discusses sustainable supply chains and sustainability standards. It notes that retailers like Tesco and Sainsbury's have their own sustainability standards for suppliers. Meeting these standards requires farmers to provide data through paperwork, audits and sharing information. There are questions around who owns this farm data and who has access. The document also discusses new roles in sustainable supply chains, including farmers needing to manage sustainability data and communicate it, retailers defining sustainability parameters, and consumers becoming more knowledgeable. An important aspect is developing transparent supply chains where consumers can select products that meet their sustainability criteria and farmers are rewarded for sustainable efforts.

Delivering The Fasion Forward

Andre Veiga, PMP

New Look is the second largest women's clothing retailer in the UK, with over 940 stores. It aims to offer great fashion at great prices through a fast fashion model that is highly reactive to trends. New Look uses a two-tier approach, categorizing products as either high fashion or fashion continuity. High fashion prioritizes newness with a short lifecycle, while fashion continuity focuses on availability. New Look implemented a replenishment system from Quantum Retail to better allocate scarce inventory based on demand forecasts and maximize profits. This led to improved like-for-like sales, margins, and market share.

Product Uploader V2 for ENOVIA PLM

Brion Carroll (II)

This document discusses concerns around labeling genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food. It introduces GMOs and how they are created through biotechnology to alter the genetic makeup of plants and foods. While supporters argue GMOs are safe and more nutritious, many have concerns about potential health consequences of higher toxin levels and a lack of sufficient data. The document outlines both sides of the debate around labeling GMOs and whether consumers have a right to know what is in their food, especially since 64 other countries already require labels. It concludes that labels would empower consumer choice when many feel governments only recommend instead of require transparency about GMOs.

Transparency in the Data Supply Chain

Paul Groth

Domains such as drug discovery, data science, and policy studies increasing rely on the combination of complex analysis pipelines with integrated data sources to come to conclusions. A key question then arises is what are these conclusions based upon? Thus, there is a tension between integrating data for analysis and understanding where that data comes from (its provenance). In this talk, I describe recent work that is attempting to facilitate transparency by combining provenance tracked within databases with the data integration and analytics pipelines that feed them. I discuss this with respect to use cases from public policy as well as drug discovery. Given at: http://ccct.uva.nl/content/ccct-seminar-21-february-2014

This document summarizes a presentation on the future of living spaces and workplaces given at Sustainable Brands London in November 2015. The presentation discusses research that identifies different consumer attitudes towards sustainability and circular concepts. It also outlines several emerging trends, like the squeeze on living space in urban areas, the blurring of work and personal life, the rise of responsive smart home technologies, community-focused "maker" movements, and a growing focus on zero waste solutions. These underlying technological and social changes are creating more opportunities for sustainable living than can be achieved through messaging alone. The presentation argues that businesses should focus on aligning with these emerging needs rather than just "selling sustainability."
