This event will help you decide if exporting is for you and if so which markets to focus on. If you already export it will help you to focus on the right markets moving forward and make sure you're aware of the support available to help you build your export market. There'll also be plenty of time to network and do business together.
Free carbon literacy training session open to all! Please come along to this introduction to managing carbon and sustainability within your business. Hosted by, Sustainability Lead Issy Shannon, this session will be helpful for anyone looking to widen their knowledge on sustainability, or people who don’t know where to start in making changes within their business.
Our first "Let's Talk About" session took place last Tuesday and was rated as useful by 100% of the attendees. These sessions are small group, short, online, peer to peer conversations around a subject suggested by you as members. In last week's session Team ECO set the scene around Hydrogen then the conversation was opened to the group and lots of interesting connections were made bringing together knowledge from diverse knowledge and experience. Watch out for a follow up to this session when Team ECO host an open day at their HQ later this year.
What do you think we should discuss at our next "Let's Talk About" session? Let us know!
We're delighted to confirm further speakers from RR-SMR and Cumberland Council joining a fabulous agenda. If you deliver Professional Services don't forget to book your free stand and if you don't deliver Professional Services book a ticket now to support your fellow members.
Member News : Businesses urged to seize the net zero opportunity
CUMBRIAN businesses investing in net zero technology and practice will be at the forefront of unprecedented opportunities for growth.
That’s the message from entrepreneur Eddie Black who says the net zero industrial revolution offers businesses the chance to make a positive impact on the planet while future-proofing their own organisations.
Speaking during UK’s first ever Hydrogen Week (February 13 to 19), Eddie, who is Managing Director of Annan-based solutions business Eco Group, believes organisations which commit to reducing their carbon footprint will reap the benefits both now and in years to come.
Eddie’s own business is pioneering world-leading net zero technology with the launch of a hydrogen separation system at its HQ in Annan, Dumfries and Galloway, this summer.
