SUMMARY:HILT CRC public webinar: Using the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) Method to support aluminium decarbonisation
DESCRIPTION:The Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) Performance Standard V3 (2022) calls for certifying ASI Entities (no matter where they sit on the aluminium value chain) to “establish a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Reduction Plan and ensure a GHG Emissions Reduction Pathway consistent with a 1.5-degree warming scenario”. \nThe ASI Method (published in 2024) is a unique\, whole-of-value-chain model that allows companies to articulate 1.5-degree aligned pathways and demonstrate conformance with this requirement. \nIn this webinar\, ASI Climate Change and Decarbonisation Director Chris Bayliss will explore the ASI Method’s “sectoral decarbonisation approach”\, which has applicability throughout the aluminium value chain\, from mining to end use and recycling. \nAssociate Professor Emma Aisbett from the Australian National University will share the HILT CRC perspective. Emma leads HILT CRC’s project on certification and verification (⁠RP3.006)\, which is working with industry partners to make sense of the rapidly evolving rules for measuring and certifying embedded emissions across aluminium\, cement and other sectors. Her team’s research is helping companies these frameworks and how to position themselves for market access and competitiveness in a low-carbon economy. \nThe presentations will be followed by an audience Q&A.

SUMMARY:[Webinar] The Intangibles Playbook: Protecting and Amplifying Value
DESCRIPTION:Across industries\, the bulk of corporate value is generated by brands\, data\, technology\, customer relationships\, and other intangible assets. Yet these are often overlooked in strategy discussions and performance tracking\, leaving boards and executives exposed to hidden risks and missed opportunities. Intangible assets are your most powerful drivers of growth — and your biggest blind spots. In this session\, you’ll learn simple\, practical ways to protect intangible value today and amplify it tomorrow. \nThis free 30-minute session will show how companies can sharpen their competitive edge by managing intangible assets with the same rigor as financial and physical assets. \nThrough real-world examples and practical frameworks\, presenters will explore: \n\nHow sudden shifts in technology\, market sentiment\, or stakeholder expectations can rapidly erode enterprise value.\nHow clarity on the characteristics of specific intangibles can lead to sharper strategy and higher earnings.\nThe implications of directors’ fiduciary responsibility for intangible assets.\nMethods to map\, grade\, and strengthen your organisation’s intangible asset base.\n\nThis session will be particularly relevant to corporate executives\, board members\, founders of growth businesses\, IP practitioners and heads of marketing\, innovation and finance. For those interested\, there will be time for Q&A after the presentation. \nRegister for free here: The Intangibles Playbook: Protecting and Amplifying Value
