Digital Transformation in the Energy sector - A Sustainability Special with Bilal Khursheed - Director, Energy & Sustainability, Americas at Microsoft

Energy affects us all! Indeed the energy sector has fast become one of the most dynamic industries of our time with vectors of change ranging from the cost crisis and supply chain fragility, through to cyber-attacks and excluded populations, and the advance of both sectoral and technological convergence too. In this special feature as a Microsoft partner, we explore how companies can better drive digital transformation, decarbonize, and achieve growth for shared value. In particular we unpack the critical role of cloud storage and data analytics for grid modernization and the ‘power pairing’ of AI and data to shape the future of energy, alongside talent and ecosystem considerations as well! And to do we are delighted to be joined by the brilliant Bilal Khursheed - Director, Energy & Sustainability, Americas at Microsoft.
