Inform, collaborate, lead: edie launches new network for sustainable business

An evolution of edie’s long-running and hugely popular Sustainability and Net-Zero Leaders Clubs, edie Membership offers businesses a curated programme of personalised content, peer-to-peer networking, live events and workshops.

Founder member companies of the new edie Membership offering include Amazon, BT, Boots, GSK, Sony Entertainments Europe and Willmott Dixon.

“With all eyes on the upcoming COP28 climate summit, now is the time for businesses to seize the opportunity to collaborate and strengthen measures to solve the escalating climate crisis,” said edie’s Publisher Luke Nicholls. “Every job is a climate job, and our new membership offering has been designed to help entire organisations implement best practice on sustainability and achieve greater results.

“It’s fantastic to see so many ambitious corporates signing up as Founding Members and we’re excited to see many more businesses joining edie’s mission to accelerate climate action over the coming weeks.”

With three membership levels on offer – Inform, Collaborate and Lead – organisations can access an array of exclusive content and events via an annual subscription. Most of edie’s content will now sit behind a paywall – identifiable by an ‘M’ icon overlaid onto the content headlines.

Key features of the new membership offering include:

Intelligence

Content features include personalised watchlist alerts allowing members to tailor newsletters based on topic and industry; a quarterly Sustainable Business Tracker and Sector Insight report, along with full access to edie’s recently launched Case Study Library [hyperlink] of business best practice on sustainability and net-zero.

Networking

Networking and collaboration is a key part of the membership offering, with monthly virtual networking events supported by in-person industry briefings, thought-leadership roundtables and access to the annual edie Leaders Summer Lunch.

Events

Building on 25 years’ experience delivering action-focused events, members will be offered VIP access and take-home action plans across a range of events including the Net-Zero Action Workshops (15 November), the Sustainable Supply Chains Summit (June/July 2024), and the flagship edie 24 conference (March 2024).

Strategy & Transformation

For organisations seeking to shape and enhance their sustainability strategy, edie’s Lead membership package includes access to a tailor-made business transformation workshop day along with membership of edie’s Advisory Board and an annual call with the Editor to help accelerate progress across the business.
