Developing Multinational Strategies
Designed to give participants the means to design multinational initiatives with the least environmental impact and lowest carbon output.
DECARBONISATION STRATEGIES
Led by the highly experienced technical and environmental consultant Eize De Vries, this Insight Seminar and Forum has been carefully designed to provide policy makers, supply chain professionals, project managers and business leaders a clear pathway towards understanding how initiatives with multinational stakeholders can be prepared with the least environmental impact and lowest carbon output. In the initial 3-hour session, participants will discover the importance of systems and system boundaries for developing effective strategies to align business and operational objectives with climate goals. In the forum on the second day, participants return to discuss their particular initiative with fellow participants and Eize. Participants will leave with a better understanding of what a low-carbon footprint and carbon neutrality actually mean, and better positioned to assess competing international decarbonisation alternatives. Register now for this transformative experience.
