Join techUK and Linklaters on 7 December 2022 for a conference looking at how the tech sector has approached biodiversity. While climate change has taken precedent in recent years global biodiversity is close to breaking point, and this event at a time when firms will be expected to do more on nature and their impacts.

As governments, conservationists and companies approach COP 15 this event will look at how the sector is factoring in biodiversity and nature into operations and how tech can make a difference in conservation and the illegal wildlife trade.  Full information is below and we hope to see as many of you there as possible to hear from some of the leading businesses and civil society organisations working in this area. There are also some speaking slots remaining for members seeking to share their expertise in this area.
