Join CO280 and CDR experts from Frontier, BMO Capital Markets and the Carbon Business Council at SFCW for an intimate evening bringing together sustainability leaders who are active in helping their firms navigate the challenges of the journey to Net-Zero, and the role CDR can play.
This is a closed event just for sustainability professionals โ no vendors or sales pitches allowed. The goal of the evening is to facilitate honest conversation among peers about what it actually takes to buy high-quality CDR: the business case, the procurement journey, and hearing about the hard-won lessons from those who've done it... and have some fun doing so!
