Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

From Catch to Consumer: The Technology Reshaping Seafood Sustainability
Q: What is the single biggest trust break in Seafood Supply Chain today and how does your platform fix it?
The biggest issue is that current supply chains are highly fragmented and non-digital, making it hard for consumers and buyers to verify origin. Seafood Souq provides an interoperable, end-to-end digital traceability backbone, enabling real-time data sharing, validation, and a transparent record from catch to consumer which builds trust and allows stakeholders to make informed decisions.
Authentic Sustainability: AI, Regulation & Real Talk with Helen Neal
Q: How do you handle the tension between a company's values and working with clients who may have different maturity levels or priorities?
We focus on progress over perfection, meet clients where they are, and use NGOs and partnerships to accelerate credible, accountable progress rather than lecturing.
Authentic Sustainability: AI, Regulation & Real Talk with Helen Neal
Q: What are the most common and critical mistakes brands make in sustainability communications, and how does Zena help prevent them?
Common mistakes include disconnects between sustainability data and messaging, and over-optimistic campaigns. Zena helps by ensuring language is backed by data, aligning internal teams, and providing governance around claims.
Authentic Sustainability: AI, Regulation & Real Talk with Helen Neal
Q: Can you tell our audience about your platform Zena and how it navigates regulatory frameworks like the EU Green Claims Directive and ASA guidelines?
Zena scans content against regulatory requirements and best practices, flags potential compliance risks, and provides coaching to adjust language so campaigns are credible and not greenwashed.
The World in 2050 - AI, Sustainability, and Empowering Future Generations with Nicolai Rottbøll
Q: You've worked across 45 plus countries. What governance model do you believe is required for AI and sustainability to build trust and avoid backlash?
A governance framework centered on data rights, model transparency, bias controls, ethics, and clear accountability is essential, especially when working with children and diverse communities; experts should guide data handling and cultural considerations.
