Achieving a zero-carbon economy is one of the most significant challenges of our time, and it is more clear than ever that businesses must fundamentally transform if they are to decarbonise. It is an immense challenge, as it requires structural change throughout the organisation. But businesses that do not transform will be left behind. In order to meet stakeholder needs, maintain competitive advantage, and limit the most devastating impacts of climate change, business-as-usual will become a thing of the past, and organisations will need to adapt for the future.

WEBINAR SERIES

To support net zero transformation in the UK business community, the UN Global Compact Network UK partnered with 103 Ventures to deliver a course-style webinar series to give CSOs, sustainability leaders, and their teams the practical tools and knowledge they need to implement meaningful change within their companies. This series outlined a step-by-step approach to the transformation process, highlighting best practices along the way. Upon completion of this series, participants became familiar with:

  • Why companies can’t continue with ‘business as usual’ if they are to achieve net zero.
  • How the net zero transformation can be structured within the business using existing frameworks, as well as the breadth, scale, and time required to achieve their goals.
  • What other leading companies are doing to change their business models and internalise net zero.
  • Clear next steps relating to their business and individual actions they can take to prompt key conversations, shift business strategy, and implement fundamental change throughout their organisation.

Each webinar in the 7-part series helps businesses take their net zero ambitions to the next level, building on material in the previous session. Join 1500+ attendees and the 17 business leaders who took part by catching up with the recordings below.
