Today’s guest is Mark Littlewood, CEO of the Business of Software conferences held in Boston, MA and Cambridge, UK.

I’ve known Mark for a number of years (and attended a few of his events) but, as is often the case with folks in tech, I don’t recall ever touching upon issues of climate or environment even in casual conversation.

With his birds-eye-view of the software industry Mark however proved to have a few important insights on how tech companies think about sustainability. We also discussed his personal views on the matter and, of course, what a conference organiser would want to see in a speaker to accept this kind of topic to a mainstream software event.

Show Notes

My guest today is James Christie, user experience designer at MadPow and founder of the (pre-COVID) remote SustainableUX conference.

As a designer James understands the huge impact design principles can have on a project from the get-go: sustainability being one of them. In other words, making yourself “greener” after the fact is much harder than building it in from day one. Aside from his tactics on doing that, we also discuss some useful approaches of how the benefits of sustainability can be “sold” to clients and colleagues internally to make the entire process easier.
