How can your business transition to Net Zero?

9th August 2022

With UK governmental legislation committing the UK to Net Zero by 2050, large companies are now required to report their carbon emissions. This includes the carbon emissions of their supply chain. Net Zero is not just about doing the right thing. It’s about the survival of your business. 

More and more public and private sector tenders are also asking businesses to show how they’re cutting emissions. This means that if you’re not doing this, then you’re missing out on business opportunities. Especially when Net Zero can give your business a competitive advantage by opening up new sales opportunities and attracting better talent into your business. 

In this 60-minute session, you’ll learn: 

  • What you need to know about current government legislation and how it is already impacting your business
  • The 5 M’s you need to save money and gain the competitive advantage in the green economy
  • Why it’s important to be able to accurately measure your carbon emissions
  • How you can accelerator your business’ journey to prosperity now 

You will also hear more about Net Zero Nation’s Net Zero Accelerator which helps SMEs get started on their net zero journey and from CeeD Sponsoring Member, Booth Welsh Automation Limited, on the implementation of the Company's carbon reduction plan and how developing a planet positive mindset across the company is opening up new business opportunities
