Sustainability is a growing concern for governments, corporations and the civil society. Leading economies such as China or the European Union have announced ambitious carbon neutrality targets and Climate Change action plans. At the corporate level, more and more corporations - large companies as well as SMEs - have strengthened their corporate social responsibility guidelines by setting up clear improvement goals towards sustainability.
The Need for implementation of Sustainability Strategies at local level has come for Industrial Companies.
During this event, a range of speakers from various green sustainability related sectors will share with you how companies can make their facilities more sustainable and reduce their environmental footprint.
