The Department for Business, Industrial Strategy & Energy (BEIS) is bringing its popular ‘Your business journey to Net Zero’ to Northern Ireland on 29 April.
In conjunction with the Northern Ireland Office and the Federation of Small Businesses Northern Ireland, BEIS will run the event virtually and it is aimed at SME businesses in Northern Ireland that want to take part in tackling climate change, but are unsure of where to start
‘Your business journey to Net Zero’ will help SMEs understand the practical steps for embarking on their own Net Zero journey, and will help businesses consider the opportunities stemming from the transition to a low carbon economy.
Minister for Small Business, Consumers and Labour Markets, Paul Scully, and Minister of State at the Northern Ireland Office, Robin Walker will open the event. The UK government’s Net Zero Business Champion, Andrew Griffith MP, will be holding a panel session with businesses, and the Minister for the Economy in the Northern Ireland Executive, Diane Dodds MLA, will be also providing her closing comments in the afternoon.
In addition, there will be a virtual exhibition hall for delegates to find out about local and regional Northern businesses and institutions, along with more products and services that will be of interest to them as they look to lower their carbon emissions.
