Our Take
Our hats are off to Crux for hosting this interesting looking conference on Data & Sustainability. Crux is not charging participants to attend next week’s conference, nor has it assembled a group of financial sponsors to underwrite the cost of the event. Of course, this is more feasible for a virtual event than it is for a physical one. Despite this fact, Crux undertook a considerable amount of work putting together the agenda, recruiting speakers, and marketing the event. The firm has done this for one reason – to position itself as a thought leader in this growing field. Click here if you wish to register for next week’s conference.
