As sustainability expectations accelerate across global business and infrastructure sectors, companies operating in the built environment are being challenged to move beyond ambition and into action. In this session, Lindsay Zingg, Chief Sustainability Officer at GF, will explore the current state of sustainability across international and North American markets in water infrastructure and the broader built environment. She will discuss with Chrissie Walsh, Regional Head of Environmental Sustainability at GF, about why leadership is critical in advancing practical sustainability solutions and how strategic, intentional innovation (supported through partnerships across manufacturers, engineers, contractors, and system designers) can unlock collaborative solutions that address climate resilience, resource efficiency, and long-term performance. Lindsay will also explore what it means to commercialize sustainability by transforming the concept into scalable, real-world solutions. She will also focus on technologies and systems that integrate seamlessly into today's projects, so organizations can help future-proof infrastructure while delivering measurable environmental and economic value over the long term.
