DigiKey announced the debut of its new Sustainable Futures video series on innovators driving eco-friendly technology.
Sponsored by Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), the series’ first season focuses on companies and individuals leading the way in developing green technologies and ushering in more sustainable practices throughout their organisations.
The world is rapidly changing to adapt to the impacts of climate change, and a more sustainable future encompasses a wide range of individual and cooperative actions. DigiKey’s Sustainable Futures video series delves into the challenges and successes of engineering and technology change-makers who are powering a greener future.
“Technologies like IoT and IIoT have become indispensable tools in the fight against climate change and resource depletion,” said Hermann Reiter, Senior Director, EMEA Supplier Business Development at DigiKey. “As these systems become more sophisticated and accessible, DigiKey and suppliers like ADI are seeding the market with products and solutions to allow even greater adoption across industries, leading to a more sustainable future.”
