Event Details

First of three free webinars offered by the Pentland Centre for Sustainability in Business aimed at small and medium sized businesses who are curious about nature and biodiversity links to business activity, and want to gain sufficient knowledge to be able to move forward in their business planning.

In this webinar a natural science introduction to nature, biodiversity and eco-systems will be provided, along with an explanation of how those aspects impact upon business operations. The ways in which business may depend upon nature and the ways business impacts on nature will be outlined using examples from different industry sectors.

This is one of a series of three which webinars come on the back of findings from two surveys undertaken in 2022 and 2024 of British senior business decision makers to find out how they think about, or are seeking to integrate nature and biodiversity, into their business activities. You can find out more about the survey results on our website. [hotlink when page is published]. All businesses (no matter how mature your thinking is around nature and biodiversity) are encouraged to read it. The report contains information on the differences between nature and biodiversity, why both dependencies and impacts are relevant, and introduces some tools and frameworks that can be used.

Each webinar addresses key aspects of the links between business, nature and biodiversity, and is offered at two different times on each date to increase the probability of their being a time to suit you.
