The Centre for Sustainable Design training

The growing global concern over climate change, resource productivity and more broadly  sustainable development calls for new rules for innovation. A sustainable, low carbon economy will require a paradigm shift in thinking and doing. Time is short and the clock is ticking. A global sustainability strategy often focuses on risks and compliance, however the imperative for change requires new approaches to strategic business development and product innovation. Customers – whether they are consumers, retailers, businesses or government – are demanding sustainable solutions. Organisations must Adapt or Die. Innovation for Sustainability will inform and inspire, helping delegates to understand global trends, threats, and opportunities. Delegates will create their own personal and corporate route map for sustainable innovation and effective strategies for implementation.
