An exciting feature of the exhibition at the Festival of Sustainable Business is the Lightning Talk stage, kindly sponsored by Inclusive Economy Initiative: University of Bristol.
Throughout the day, we will hear short, punchy talks from a whole range of local companies who are all doing great work on different aspects of sustainability.
These include: Going For Gold, Life Cycle, Hoare Lea, Bristol Pound, Futureground, Gravtricity, Rathbone Greenbank Investment, Strategic Innovation, LettUsGrow, Grow Bristol, The Environment Agency, Better Century, Brunel Group and Catalyse Change.
The sessions will be chaired by ex-Heart FM presenter Paris Troy, who is sure to create a fun and lively session.
This is all free to attend, as is the exhibition as a whole. For anyone with an interest in sustainability, this is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to learn about what local businesses are doing. You can visit the stands of around 60 businesses who will be showcasing their sustainable initiatives. Register for free in advance here.
As well as the indoor stands, the Festival Exhibition will also feature some outdoors exhibitors in Millennium Square where you can see some of the latest in sustainable vehicles – and to top it all off, we will have a range of sustainable food vendors with some delightful food offerings, creating a true Festival environment.
Don’t miss what promises to be a fabulous day, and hopefully the first of an annual event.
