What is the ‘Road to COP26: Event Sector Transformation’:

This initiative was curated by Positive Impact to provide support to the event sector, predominately SMEs, to make a net zero commitment and take action on this commitment, through free resources, before COP26. The net zero commitments are made to the SME Climate Hub which is a member of the UN Race to Zero Campaign.
