About this Event

Breakfast. Conversation. Action.

Join us for a free morning event exploring how sustainability standards and certifications can help your business build credibility, strengthen competitiveness and demonstrate environmental leadership.

Through expert insights, real-world case studies and an interactive business challenge, you'll discover how frameworks such as B Corp, EcoVadis, Planet Mark and ISO 14001 can support your organisation's goals, whether that's winning contracts, meeting customer expectations, attracting talent or improving environmental performance.

Hear directly from businesses that have achieved certification and leave with a clearer understanding of which approach could be right for your organisation.

The One Stockport Future Ready Business Network brings together organisations looking to build smarter, stronger and more resilient businesses.

  • Expert insights from Graeme Heyes (Litmus Sustainability) and Green Economy on sustainability standards, certifications and their business value
  • A local business panel featuring organisations that have completed the certification process
