Future-proof your business: Getting ahead of climate and operational risks

This event is part of Next Fest, brought to you by the Sustainable Business Network and NZI.

Picture this: a major weather event hits your region. Power’s out, roads are closed, and your suppliers are struggling to deliver. But your business keeps trading. Your team knows what to do, your systems are backed up, and your customers stay connected because you had a plan. 

This interactive session will help you get started on that plan. You’ll learn how to identify your key climate and operational risks, from supply chain disruption and infrastructure issues to customer and workforce impacts, and discover simple, practical actions to protect your business from future shocks. 

You’ll get: 

• A hands-on introduction to identifying and managing climate-related risks to your business 

• Ideas and quick wins for improving business continuity 

• Information on support tools to help you take your next steps in climate action 

You’ll also be introduced to ClimateWise, a free online tool that helps small and medium businesses assess risk and prepare for the unexpected. 

This is a practical, two-hour taster session to spark ideas, build confidence, and help you stay operating during disruption.
