The Gospel of the CEO

In the wake of a global pandemic, social unrest, and political upheaval, stakeholders are expecting more from corporations, especially from CEOs. Increasingly, CEOs are expected to take a public stand on matters of social consequence – from climate change and immigration to state legislation and Supreme Court rulings. Wise leaders are leaning on their Chief Communications Officers to help them navigate these issues, capitalize on the leadership opportunities this new paradigm presents, and avoid damaging corporate reputations. Learn real life lessons from the boardroom in this session.

Speakers: Jennifer Temple (HPE), Kelly McGinnis (Levi Strauss), and Whitney Eichinger (Southwest Airlines)

Fixing the Postpartum Healthcare Crisis

There’s a significant healthcare crisis for postpartum moms: 1 in 3 will have severe health outcomes; 50% of US counties have no maternal care services; and over half of maternal deaths occur postpartum. That’s why Joyuus, a women-owned start-up and digital health innovator, is partnering with Alpha 3 Cloud and HPE to create accessible well-being for all. Hear how the partnership is transforming the postpartum experience using human-centered research and design to provide real-time, evidence-based, actionable health platform centered on the insights of moms and those who care for them.

Saving the Planet with AI

Business leaders are facing increasing pressure to implement AI yet the amount of energy required to use AI is enormous. Research indicates that training a single AI model can emit as much carbon as five cars in their lifetimes. Yes, AI will change the world but it’ll also contribute to catastrophic climate change from the carbon emissions it produces if we do not act responsibly. Technology leaders from HPE and Crusoe Energy will share how to sustainably deploy AI – to advance society and save the planet.

Speakers: Justin Hotard (HPE), Chase Lochmiller (Crusoe Energy)
