Building Business Resilience: Sustainability Priorities for SMEs
California’s climate and waste regulations are evolving quickly, and small and medium-sized enterprises are increasingly being asked by clients and suppliers to show progress on sustainability. For many SMEs, the challenge is knowing where to start.
In this session, sustainability consultants Colleen Cochran of Agendi and Simone Fraid of Greenwood Consulting will walk through the essentials of building a foundation for climate reporting and zero waste. The presentation will cover:
Navigating Client Requests – understanding how companies small and large are impacted by California’s climate regulations and how to respond to climate questionnaires with confidence
Sustainability 101 – understand the basics of how to assess, report, and improve your business in these key topic areas such as Climate Risk and Zero Waste
Resources for Getting Started – identify practical tools and support available to help you take your first steps
The session will conclude with a Q&A, giving attendees the chance to ask questions and leave with a clear path forward.
