Businesses need to understand their carbon account or footprint to assess their climate impact and risk. This can be tricky, especially when involving your supply chain.

There is an evolving and expanding market of online platforms and software to support carbon accounting and supply chain engagement. There are also impending requirements for mandatory carbon reporting to consider.

At this interactive seminar, CitySwitch, with the support of Edge Impact, will deliver the results of market research and provide guidance on due diligence to procure appropriate software for your business emission calculations and reduction activities.

Edge Impact are a global impact consultancy who combine science, strategy, and storytelling. Their team of carbon, sustainable procurement and supply chain experts will lead this workshop.

If you’re a sustainability manager, office manager, facilities manager, or the sustainability champion in your business we’d encourage you to come along. We’d also warmly welcome those in finance, procurement or supplier and contract management.
