Now available on demand: edie’s Sustainable Development Inspiration Sessions

Register now for access to all three free sessions

With just eight years left to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 underlying targets, it’s clear that businesses must step up if we’re to have the positive impact on society which the Goals ultimately exist to deliver.

So, on Thursday 22 September, edie hosted the Sustainable Development Inspiration Sessions – an afternoon of live, interactive webinar presentations and discussions – all dedicated to giving businesses the tools and knowledge to maximise their contribution to the Global Goals.

— REGISTER TO WATCH THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT INSPIRATION SESSIONS ON DEMAND—

This online event effectively combined three edie webinars into a single afternoon, with each webinar session taking a particular focus and format. The first session (one hour) was a Q&A-style SDG debate; the second session (one hour) was a series of quick-fire, Goal-based case studies; and the third session (45 minutes) was in a ‘masterclass’ format.

edie is delighted to confirm that all three sessions are now available to watch on-demand. You can access the recording by registering. Full details of the three sessions are as follows:
