                      INDUSTRY

                      Brett Wiskar, Chief Future Officer, Wiley

                      The high cost and uncertainty around reliable energy sources has become a significant issue for the manufacturing sector
                      in Australia. The absence of political leadership on the issue in Australia has meant that increasingly industry is creating
                      their own solutions. This session and following panel discuss will discuss how the energy challenge is currently being met,
                      who is leading the way with innovation and the importance of a collaborative mindset.

 16.00 - 16.45        KEYNOTE: MEETING THE ENERGY CHALLENGE - THE LONG-TERM FINANCIAL BENEFITS OF COMMERICAL

                      Jackie McKeon, Project Director, Business Renewables Council of Australia

                      How can industry secure their own sustainable and reliable energy future? Corporate Power Purchase Agreements
                      (PPAs), which establish fixed energy pricing from renewable resources, may be the answer. An expert panel representing
                      the innovators, brokers, government, industry and energy providers will discuss the drivers behind commercial PPAs, how
                      to navigate the legal process, the potential benefits and risks.

                      Dr Katie Spearritt, Diversity Partners

                      Diversity and inclusion are increasingly recognised as mainstream business issues, prioritised by Boards and CEO’s in
                      leading companies in Australia. That’s because research shows innovation, better decision-making, and higher pro-
                      ductivity comes from well-managed teams with a diversity of backgrounds (such as gender and culture) and different
                      thinking approaches. But if the benefits of diversity are so obvious, why don’t we see more in Australian companies, and
                      the packaging industry in particular? A key barrier is unconscious bias – the automatic stereotypes and assumptions we
                      make about people that influence our behaviour. We all have these biases so ingrained we hardly notice them. Dr Katie
                      Spearritt will explore the importance of diversity and an inclusive work environment for organisations – small, medium or
                      large – in the packaging industry. She’ll share actions we can take to break stereotyped associations that inhibit diversity
                      and innovation.
