Responsible Innovation: Protecting our Planet with Technology (1:00 PM ET)

The Hill

Emerging technologies have the potential to transform and revolutionize environmental protection as we know it.

From investing in smarter, green tech practices to ensuring corporate responsibility through policy, the hunt for new ways to reduce humanity's carbon footprint is crucial in its advancement.

As a new administration takes charge, how can we leverage this moment of opportunity? How can we continue to invest in emerging technologies that will revolutionize environmental protection? And how can policymaking keep pace to ensure technology is leading the way in the conservation of our Earth?

Join The Hill today for a comprehensive discussion on how the United States can lead environmental efforts through its advancing technology.

Reset 2021: A New American Start (12:30 PM ET)

The Hill

The election of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris brings with it the expectation of a new era and many policy shifts.

As with any presidential transition, priorities and goals will be recalibrated. The incoming administration has outlined a broad policy framework with proposals focused on improving infrastructure and expanding universal access to broadband, revitalizing immigration, supporting environmental sustainability, providing meaningful support to those harmed by the COVID-19 pandemic, and, of course, reviving the economy.

Join The Hill to explore how and where policy "resets" are expected to happen. We'll take stock of the equities in these debates and envision how a new political equilibrium will unfold.
