NAEM’s FORUM25 convenes the largest annual gathering of EHS and sustainability decision-makers from October 20–24, 2025, featuring sessions on AI, governance, Scope 2 emissions, and supply chain compliance.
Held over four days, the event brings together executives and strategists from companies like GE Healthcare, Intel, Lockheed Martin, Meta, and Yahoo, offering practical case studies and peer-tested frameworks.
Keynotes by Dr. Terry Yosie and senior leaders from Mondelēz International and Diversified Energy explore the changing fundamentals of environmental decision-making and how governance can anchor corporate strategy in volatile conditions.
Sessions such as "Climate Risk Assessment, Adaptation, & Resilience" and "Managing Compliance in a Conflicting Regulatory Environment" dive deep into navigating regulatory shifts and building resilience across the value chain.
The session “Effective EHS Governance to Drive Strategy”—led by Jon Anderson, Executive of EHS Governance and Risk Management at GE Healthcare—will explore best practices and actionable approaches for aligning EHS governance with organizational goals. Attendees can expect guidance on implementing governance frameworks that support compliance and long-term outcomes.
A major theme of FORUM25 is practical technology adoption. Sessions like “AI Use Cases for EHS & Sustainability” and “Technologies Solving Real-World EHS Challenges” feature leaders from Benchmark Gensuite, GE Vernova, Comcast, and VelocityEHS presenting on how AI is improving worker safety, data integrity, and environmental analysis.
The circular economy also takes center stage with “From Waste to Value: Circularity in Practice,” a session led by Cox Enterprises’ AVP Meredith Lindvall.
The conference offers attendees tangible tools to improve EHS and ESG performance:
Sessions such as “Win Over Skeptics with Effective Communication” and “Developing New Leaders: A Peer Roundtable” address the human side of EHS&S transformation—aligning stakeholders, navigating C-suite conversations, and cultivating the next generation of sustainability leaders.
As organizations face mounting pressure to deliver on environmental performance and social responsibility, FORUM25 offers more than just insight—it provides a strategic roadmap. From navigating Scope 2 disclosures and AI integration to elevating EHS governance and supply chain transparency, the sessions reflect the evolving role of EHS&S professionals as enterprise leaders. For those shaping what’s next in sustainability and compliance, the takeaways from FORUM25 will resonate long after the event ends.
