Our biggest event of the year, edie 23, is continuing in central London today (2 March) in a fitting start to Business Leadership Month. We will be convening more than 100 expert sustainability speakers, plus hundreds of attendees and dozens of exhibitors, for two days of keynotes, panels, best-practice case studies and audience-led discussions across three themed stages – Strategy, Net-Zero and Action.

Speakers on the agenda for edie 23 include former Unilever CEO Paul Polman and renowned climate activist Elizabeth Wathuti, who are speaking today. Yesterday we heard from speakers including Climate Change Committee chair Lord Deben; Net-Zero Review author Chris Skidmore MP and Pukka Herbs’ chief executive Anuradha Chugh.

The entire edie team is live on-site at edie 23 to help deliver our biggest event yet. Follow this live blog for all the latest from the conference.
