About
This webinar, hosted by CISL, will explore the themes presented in the recent report Better business: Re-thinking business models for nature positive outcomes which forms part of the A-Track project aiming to better integrate natural capital into decision making across business, government and finance (supported by funding from UKRI and EU-Horizon under grant agreement no. 101082268).
Accompanied by a condensed Business Briefing, this work examines how we can transition to a nature positive economy through adopting new business models. This means going beyond operational changes (adopting nature positive practices) and instead pursuing a more systemic, transformational shift. The work aims to identify and scale up business models that are both profitable and aligned with the global nature positive goal.
In this webinar, we will hear from Eliot Whittington (Chief Systems Change Officer, CISL) on the importance of this work in the wider context (such as national and international policy frameworks including the Global Biodiversity Framework and the changing regulatory landscape). Anum Sheikh (Policy Analyst, CISL), lead author of the paper, will then cover the key takeaways and implications for business. Harry Greenfield (Programme Manager, Business and Nature, CISL) will conclude the session by exploring how businesses can participate in this ongoing project over the next three years through a series of planned workshops, hackathons and pilots, benefitting from the expertise of CISL’s innovation, business advisory and policy experts.
