Verizon - Future of Work

The future of work

Project led by Verizon

The COVID-19 pandemic has required us to look closely at how the definitions of ‘work’ and ‘workers’ fit in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This transformation has the ability to impact all our lives in positive or negative ways, so it is important that we understand the possible futures, and take action to create a positive future of work for all.

Working with Verizon and more than 30 experts across Europe and the U.S. we identified five barriers to a positive future - and developed action-oriented working groups with policy makers and business leaders to create recommendations that can accelerate businesses, workers, and broader society towards a desired future state of work.

ED_Projects_GigEconomy

An inclusive gig economy

Project led by Mastercard

In times of crisis, gig workers, freelancers and independent contractors are some of the hardest hit. They have no safety nets, provisions, or protections to fall back on. At the same time, the gig economy continues to gain momentum in Europe.

Working with Mastercard, this project engaged with an influential community of global businesses to create a shared narrative on the importance of a protected and inclusive gig economy; and to identify, incubate, and develop commercially viable and scalable opportunities to improve the financial safety net.

ED_Projects_BioFuels

Biofuels from depleted land

Project led by Scania and Yara

As we accelerate our shift away from fossil fuels, finding commercial alternatives that are environmentally responsible or even restorative is becoming key. This project explores the feasibility of producing biofuels on European land unsuitable for production of food or feed and building a value-chain to realise that potential.

By focusing primarily on abandoned and contaminated land in countries across Europe, our ambition is to explore the full range of benefits that biofuel production could bring to these communities as part of a just energy transition.

ED_Projects_DecarbonisingTransport

Decarbonising commercial road transport

Project led by Shell

Road transport contributes considerably to global emissions. To help meet EU and global targets, this project was launched to  accelerate the decarbonisation of commercial road transport in Europe at scale and at pace in line with Shell’s ambition to become a net zero emissions energy business by 2050.

In conjunction with Shell, Scania and DB Schenker have undertaken two commercially innovative lighthouse projects to help define a practial, scalable and collaborative approach to reducing the 20% of global emissions from road transport.

ED_Projects_DecarbonisingSteel

Steel decarbonisation

Project led by Tata

Global demand for steel is projected to grow by more than 30% and India is expected to triple its steel production by 2050. Contributing circa 8% of global CO2 emissions, steels transformation requires a systemic approach that considers technology, finance, policy, and other levers.

This project aims to help accelerate the decarbonisation of steel via consideration of Tata Steel’s existing activities, global best practices, and potential intervention points across the key levers for transformation.

ED_Projects_SustainableGrowth

Sustainable growth strategy

Project led by Mastercard

Building on global momentum towards net zero, Mastercard is reprising the inspiring leadership role it played in financial inclusion to stake a claim in environmental sustainability by building products and services that can encourage and enable other companies to go beyond ESG and net zero targets to grow their core business.

This project sets out to decarbonise the consumer landscape through the offering, nudging, and education of conscious consumers, to shift their spending to low-carbon alternatives.
