The second annual Net Zero Festival virtual event will bring together some of the world's foremost thinkers and top business leaders to explore what it takes to accelerate and expand the net zero transition, providing invaluable insights and advice on how to develop an effective net zero strategy through a series of workshops, panel discussions, and keynote speeches.

Chaired by Krishnan Guru-Murthy, Gavin Esler, Lucy Siegle, and James Murray, the three day event will explore how the net zero transition is shaping policy and politics, technology and innovation, nature, finance, culture, supply chains, infrastructure, and every aspect of the global economy.
"The tag line of the Net Zero Festival is 'faster, together' and as such we're delighted that we are able to take this step to ensure the event is accessible and wide-reaching as possible," said BusinessGreen editor James Murray. "Thanks to the support of our commercial partners a tranche of free passes are available and we'd urge anyone with any interest in the net zero transition to join us for what promises to be an invaluable event.
"We've got sessions planned for everyone from businesses just starting to consider how they respond to the net zero transition to those that are already accelerating their decarbonisation efforts. The event will offer everything from thought-provoking debate about the merits and pitfalls of net zero strategies to inspirational insights from top business leaders and practical advice on how to develop an effective decarbonisation plan."
Interested parties can now register for one of the new trance of free passes through the Net Zero Festival website.
You can also now book your place at the in-person component of the Net Zero Festival, the BusinessGreen Leaders Awards 2021, the shortlist for which will be announced next week.
