How can we ensure sustainability claims and credentials are genuine? 

In the last decade, awareness of sustainability has surged, moving from the fringes to the forefront of global concern. Issues like climate change, biodiversity loss, and social responsibility have become central topics, demanding action from businesses and individuals alike.

As sustainability becomes a critical focus, so too does the need to verify the claims made by corporations and brands. The market is now awash with products and brands claiming greener credentials.

How can we ensure that the sustainability credentials touted by these entities are genuine?

 

Join us for Cambridge Tech Week 2024!

CISL’s Canopy team, in partnership with the British Standards Institution (BSI), is spearheading efforts to scale innovative solutions that can authenticate sustainability claims.

Join us for a half-day event to explore how technology can be harnessed to verify these claims. The event will feature industry experts and showcase pioneering solutions that are building trust in sustainability.
