This is the second webinar in Delivering a resilient, net-zero economy series run by The Prince of Wales’s Corporate Leaders Group (CLG).

The overarching objectives for the webinar series are to:

• Engaging a broad range of businesses in the actions and policy required to deliver net-zero and build resilience
• Be a call to action to get increased business commitments to net-zero and building resilience
• Engage policymakers in the barriers and enablers to business action on net-zero and building resilience on specific areas of the transition

This webinar will be delivered as part of the Race to Zero Dialogues taking place from 9 to 19 November 2020. It is one of several dialogues that focus on the cross-cutting theme of resilience.
