This webinar is the first of the series: Delivering a resilient, net zero economy, providing a call to action and supporting enhanced collaboration between policymakers and business leaders that feeds into UK business climate leadership, policy, the green recovery and the Government’s COP26 campaign.

The aim of this webinar is to examine the challenges of how we transition national infrastructure towards a resilient net zero vision. It will take a place-based approach to look at the role of business in accelerating the transition, opportunities for innovation, where new approaches may be required and the policy levers required to release private investment.

This webinar and related series are organised by The Prince of Wales’s Corporate Leaders Group (CLG). The CLG is supported by the University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL).

SPEAKERS: Dame Polly Courtice, Founder Director, Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership Steve Barclay MP, Chief Secretary to the Treasury and MP for North East Cambridgeshire Emma Pinchbeck, Chief Executive, Energy UK Julia Pyke, Director of Sizewell C Financing and Economic Regulation, EDF Giles Harvey, Group Supply Chain Director, Sky Joao Pola, CEO UKI, Signify Colin Matthews (Chair), Non-Executive Chairman of EDF in the UK, and co-Chair of The Prince of Wales's Corporate Leaders Group
