Procurement & Supply Chain LIVE: Supply Chain Sustainability
Many companies are seeing incredible successes in reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, yet continuing to struggle to reduce Scope 3 emissions. The trend is prompting an incredible focus on reducing emissions in the supply chain:
- Despite a 6.3% drop in Scope 1 and 2 emissions since 2020, tech giant Microsoft has seen a 30.9% increase in Scope 3 emissions, prompting the creation of a new team to focus on reducing supply chain emissions
- McKinsey & Company is suggesting retailers could reduce their Scope 3 emissions by 15% by 2030 with existing technologies – or as much as 50% with new technologies and pathways
- Mastercard's 2023 ESG report outlines a four-point plan to reduce Scope 3 emisisons
Coming this September to the renowned Business Design Centre, the Procurement & Supply Chain LIVE London Global Summit is poised to offer unparalleled insights directly from the world's leading corporations through frank, open dialogues.
Spanning over two vibrant days, frontrunners of the industry will engage, gain knowledge, and share wisdom on the most up-to-the-minute trends, challenges, innovations, and practices at the event.
