Business briefings

Our new webinar series for businesses will go beyond the headlines to uncover the real challenges shaping our world and how you can be part of the solution.

What's it all about?

This webinar series is designed for employees that are ready to engage with some of the most pressing environmental issues of our time. Each session will focus on nature and how the nature crisis is already impacting businesses globally.

We’ll separate fact from fiction, share insights into our work, and explain why it matters. Most importantly, we’ll highlight the many ways to join the conversation, take action, and drive meaningful change within your organisation and your B2B networks.

No single business or NGO can solve these challenges alone. But together, we can safeguard the planet and create resilient, sustainable businesses.

Join us on: Tuesday 29 April at 11:00 - 12:30

If you aren’t sure how fires in the Amazon can affect your business or how the Amazon helps regulate weather patterns globally, please join us at our first Business Briefing... 

For the first webinar, we will have a frank discussion on the state of nature globally with a deep dive into the tipping points of the Amazon. Why is this relevant to UK-based companies? What can we do in the UK to help? How is our food system part of the problem? Why do we need core environmental standards and supportive trade policies? What can businesses in the UK do?
