Growing greener: Climate risks, solutions and opportunities in Agro-Food Processing

As the world gears up for the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28), a crucial milestone in the global fight against climate change, it's essential for us to understand its key objectives and how they relate to businesses like yours. COP28 is set to accelerate climate action, strengthen commitments under the Paris Agreement, and drive innovation in sustainable practices.

In keeping with these goals, we're excited to announce the launch of our own series of webinars dedicated to SMEs:

Driving the green transition: How SMEs can navigate climate challenges and grow sustainably

These webinars cover four sectors of agro-food processing, construction, textile and tourism & hospitality and are aimed at getting SME owners to start thinking about how climate change will affect them, while empowering them to take climate action and drive a more sustainable and resilient future.

In this session, seasoned experts and SMEs who are actively pursuing their green business opportunities in the agro-food processing sector share the implications of physical and transitional climate change risks and how integrating greener practices has impacted their bottom line.
