Sustainable Commodities and Landscapes Forum
Key themes and emerging issues that we will cover over two-days of in-depth, engaging and interactive discussion
Will EU regulations create supply chain chaos?
From mandatory due diligence to deforestation-free regulation, how will current and upcoming EU legislation affect commodity supply chains? How can business navigate the changing regulatory landscape, ensure positive impact on the ground, and avoid potential unintended consequences?
How will carbon rules change procurement?
Carbon accounting frameworks continue to evolve, but issues surrounding data fatigue, double-counting and inconsistencies in data collection remain. How will carbon rules shape your climate and procurement strategies? How can business identify credible solutions to address unavoidable emissions, from offsets, to biodiversity credits, to blue carbon?
Do we understand the dynamics of tackling biodiversity?
Business is turning its focus to biodiversity, with many companies announcing biodiversity targets to protect and restore nature. How do you translate commitments to action on the ground? What are the right biodiversity metrics to measure and verify business impact?
Is collaboration by business really happening at scale?
"Collaboration is key" is a familiar phrase to us all, but is this really happening, and to what extent? How can we drive meaningful cross-industry collaboration in sourcing areas and achieve pre-competitive partnerships at scale?
What’s different about this forum?
Innovation Forum is:
- Candid: Entirely off-the-record discussion that enables open and honest disclosure from speakers and genuine participation from the audience.
- Practical: A clear focus on the practical and actionable guidance that can drive change throughout industries and supply chains.
- Focused: We provide enough time, resources and expertise to the issues that really matter. We don’t skate the surface, but get to the crux of the issues to provide in-depth, constructive discussion.
Innovation Forum is NOT:
- A PR platform: Enthusiastic speakers are NOT given free rein to fill a session presenting their companies, allowing no time to actually get to the crux of the issues.
- A talking shop: This is NOT an opportunity for a group people in a room to simply agree with everything said, regardless of outcomes.
- All promise, no delivery: We will NOT promise what we can’t deliver. The issues covered are complex. They won’t be solved at a two-day conference. But we will help deliver progress through in-depth, constructive and practical advice around specific issues.
