Keynote: Accelerating the Transition in Innovation and Technology Towards a Net-Zero World
Since 2019, our plenary and keynote speakers have deliberated on challenges, scenarios, and presented potential solutions, mapping out the trajectory towards achieving the 2050 Net Zero goals. Time, as they say, flies swiftly, and in the six years that have passed, we've already traversed nearly a fifth of the time allocated until 2050. The keynote will invite us each to pause and to collectively reflect on our progress thus far. Have we indeed traversed 20% of this transformative journey? More importantly, are adjustments necessary for us to stay on course and achieve our objectives within the stipulated time frame?

Plenary Panel: Achievements to Date Towards Net-Zero in Propulsion and Power
We will focus on achievements on the journey towards net zero and sustainability, aiming to discuss actual delivery rather than on future plans and projections. We will delve into the most disruptive technologies such as electrification, hydrogen, and other innovative solutions that transcend the realm of traditional gas turbine technology. These discussions and exchanges will be instrumental in shaping our collective roadmap, steering us toward a sustainable and innovative future.
