The event will be an opportunity to network with likeminded businesses in the area and discuss the sustainability related issues facing the world. We'll also hear from a range of speakers about what they're doing in their particular industries, and what sustainable practices you can take away to address your own goals.
A light breakfast will be provided from 8:30am, featuring locally sourced food and drink.
