Net Zero Carbon Conference

Embedding the E in ESG: The Lancashire Net Zero Carbon Conference 2023

The Lancashire Net Zero Carbon Conference will look in detail at the opportunities and challenges associated with achieving a sustainable and low-carbon future for your business and the region.  The event will bring together experts and business leaders to share knowledge, exchange ideas and explore solutions that can be implemented on a small or large scale to help the business community reduce their carbon footprint or achieve net zero status. 

The conference will cover the wider benefits of net zero ambition and innovation - future proofing your business and using it as a way to grow, including through recruitment and retention, and being in position to win new work. 

And we'll hear about the Lancashire businesses making global waves with their net zero products and services. 

The conference will also be an opportunity to explore partnerships, collaborations, and funding opportunities to support the region's transition to a low-carbon economy. 


Conference themes: 

Sustainability is good for the bottom line 
Investing in low carbon initiatives has demonstrable benefits for profits and growth. Find out why and how to take advantage. 
 
Embedding the E in ESG 
Lasting change in culture and attitudes will drive a sustainable growth strategy. Implementing that strategy brings a business together behind a higher purpose and drives change for the better. We’ll hear from those who have made it work. 
 
Practical solutions 
We’ll speak with businesses that have introduced sustainable technologies and strategies and investigate the wider benefits to Lancashire business. We’ll also hear from experts on the latest kit and best-practice thinking and solutions for SMEs from around the world. And we’ll talk about finance for sustainable investment. 
 
Procurement and regulation 
We’ll look at procurement and the requirement to demonstrate economic, social and environmental wellbeing when pitching for public tenders. How can a sustainable strategy help you win work? We’ll also investigate the impacts to business from environmental legislation and consider what new rules are coming. 
 
Recruitment and retention 
Every sector is feeling the strain of recruitment and retention. Meanwhile, it is becoming clear that younger job hunters want more from their employers – they want to know that business is being done the right way. We’ll look at the changing demands of candidates and how to attract and keep them. 
 
Lancashire’s contribution and business leadership 
Lancashire has a vibrant sustainability sector, trading locally, nationally and globally. And overseas businesses are keen to invest, in part attracted by skills developed by world-leading university and further education provision in the county. We’ll learn more about the sector during the conference. We’ll also hear how business is taking the lead on the sustainability agenda – putting pressure on government to support their initiatives.
