Clean Futures project is delighted to announce the launch of a BRAND NEW business networking group to be hosted at the Very Light Rail National Innovation Centre in Dudley, West Midlands.

As a core aspect of the flagship Clean Futures project, aimed at increasing understanding of the challenges and opportunities on the collective regional journey towards Net Zero and decarbonisation, networking is part of the comprehensive Catalyst programme of themed workshops and events for business.

The first session will run from 9.30 am to 11.30 am on Wednesday 14th February in the centre’s Exhibition Hall, and will include plenty of opportunities to meet and chat with other businesses alongside the BCIMO team. Each meeting will focus on a core theme of green innovation, beginning with an overview of sustainable development and ways in which small businesses can create and deliver their own green strategy. Their first meeting, themed around Valentine’s Day is ‘Business Loves The Planet’.

This event is FREE to all West Midlands SMEs who are already working in the green innovation sector and those who are interested in finding out more.
