The way sustainability and net-zero progress are reported and communicated has radically changed. Changing regulations and standardisation is making for an increasingly complex non-financial reporting landscape. Meanwhile, investors, customers and society are applying increasing pressure on businesses to present sustainability data in coherent, engaging formats which avoid greenwashing.
edie’s ENGAGE 2024 online event effectively combined three webinars into a single afternoon, with each session taking a particular format. The first took the form of an audience-led Q&A; the second was a series of quick-fire case studies; and the third took a ‘masterclass’ format.
First aired live on Thursday 25 January, these sessions are now available to watch on-demand at your convenience.
