From procurement to sustainable procurement: engaging suppliers for impact

This dynamic session shows the role of collaboration – between procurement, supplier and technology – as a powerful tool to drive sustainability. Featuring presentations from CIPS award-winner Nationwide Building Society, the innovative packaging start-up Notpla, and climate platform specialist, Watershed. 

We hear how Nationwide has committed to reducing its upstream Scope 3 emissions by 42% by 2030 by setting science-based target expectations for suppliers of high value contracts, a project that was named Best Commitment to Carbon Reduction in Supply Chains at this year's awards. And how Notpla, the Earthshot Prize-winning company, produces "disappearing packaging" that helps food and beverage suppliers bid farewell to single-use plastic by harnessing the natural properties of seaweed.
