Episode summary

In this episode, our host Marjolein Koens-Schaddelee speaks with Rik Willemse, Head of Professional Displays & Solutions Europe at Sony. The focus is on how a manufacturer puts sustainability into practice in the field of professional displays.

Europe is leading the way in sustainability pressures and is thereby influencing global product development. At Sony, quality has traditionally been the guiding principle, both in terms of image performance and product reliability. Energy efficiency has now been explicitly added as a strategic design choice.

For facility and IT managers, this means that energy consumption and lifespan are structural factors in TCO and carbon footprint. The impact adds up quickly, particularly when dealing with large numbers of screens. The episode demonstrates that sustainability requires entrepreneurial spirit within organisations and collaboration across the supply chain.
