SUMMARY:SPP Denmark | Workshop on Science Based Target Requirements for Suppliers (In-Person Event)
DESCRIPTION:*** Book your place via this link and to find location details*** \nAddressing supply chain emissions requires partnering with like-minded companies. Therefore\, more and more companies are asking their suppliers to set science-based targets. However\, the question of how to do this best remains. \nJoin the SPP Denmark Chapter for our Breakfast Club workshop session\, where we invite our ambassadors to discuss and evaluate different approaches to get suppliers to set their own ambitious emission reduction targets. \nThe workshop will serve as a knowledge sharing session where we can discuss the merits and challenges of different approaches to ensure that we have all considerations when developing a strategy. We will collect the learnings and best practices to provide future inspiration. \nAgenda: \n\n8:30-9:00: Networking Breakfast\n9:00-9:10: Introduction to SPP\n9:10-9:15: Workshop Goals\n9:15-9:45: Setting the Stage: Science Based Targets requirements for suppliers\n9:45-10:00: Activity Introduction: knowledge sharing of strategy and implementation approaches(e.g. contractual vs. engagement\, SBTi vs. in-house verification)\n10:00-10:10: Break\n10:10-10:50: Activity Continuation\n10:50-11:00 Wrap-up
