Webinar Overview

Voluntary carbon markets are under more scrutiny than ever before. With greenwashing allegations on the rise and the SBTi Corporate Net-Zero Standard V2 introducing new benchmarks and timelines, businesses can no longer afford to treat carbon credits as an afterthought. Getting it wrong carries real reputational, financial, and regulatory risk.

The latest interactive webinar from BusinessGreen - hosted in association with Ecologi and its industry-leading Carbon Project Assessment Framework - will help delegates cut through the noise and build a carbon credit portfolio that stands up to scrutiny and delivers promised emissions reductions or removals.

The session will bring together leading experts to discuss what good looks like in voluntary carbon markets, how to evaluate credit quality, and what a high-integrity portfolio strategy actually means for your business in practice. We'll hear from experts across the market on how to make informed, defensible decisions about carbon investment.

Attendees can also claim a free design for a bespoke Oxford Principles-aligned portfolio built around their organisation's emissions profile.
