We'll be talking about Supplier Diversity. it's such an important topic and we want to get everyone not just talking about it but taking action. This event can be attended by both buyers and suppliers keen to chat about supplier diversity, about both the challenges and the opportunities.

We're delighted to be joined by Krystle Sands, Head of Supplier Diversity for Meta for the EMEA Region who will talk us through what they are doing to transform supplier diversity. Meta's goal is to create opportunities for diverse-owned companies to do business with Meta, and the people and communities that Meta connects.

We'll be chatting about some of the actions buyers can take to work towards a proportionate and representative supply base and how you can measure success.

We have developed this webinar for organisations who are working or wish to work in the Public Sector and/or want to understand social value better and learn how to develop an approach to social contribution through your business.

Social and environmental impact is a growing priority in private sector competitions and so this workshop will help businesses who are seeking to increase their knoweldge in this area to support growth generally.

The Public Services Act requires commissioners in the public sector to consider social outcomes in everything they spend. Over the last few years, Social Value considerations in procurement have been steadily receiving more scrutiny and importance. With the impending changes to the regulatory environment, this is only set to increase traction further. Now is a good time to understand how you can contribute socially through your core business.

We will explore how to practically develop the social value narrative of your organisation, work out what's important for you, and how to communicate it. We'll reference back to the TOMs (Themes, Outcomes and Measures) and SDG's (Sustainable Development Goals ) which are good reference models regardless of which sector your prospective client is in.

A practical overview of Carbon Net Zero (CNZ) for providers. Where do you start, what does it mean and what proportionate, relevant and impactful actions can you take as a business?

This webinar will provide a practical overview of Carbon Net Zero for providers whether you're supplying public or private sector clients as all commissioning organisations across all sectors focus more on environmental stewardship and reducing carbon.

As we prepare for the Act to come into force in October 2024, we reflect on updates from the Government on how we are preparing both procurement and providers for the new procurement environment.

We'll take a look at the knowledge drops and training so far for providers, reflecting on preparation for the new regulations. As we learn more about big changes such as the Central Digital System and the new notices required as well as how popular products such as Frameworks and Dynamic Purchasing Systems (DPS) change, we'll give practical guidance and updates on what to expect.

At this session we'll give an overview of basic policies required by the public sector generally and by sector (such as construction, IT, professional services, health & care etc).

We will also explore how to get on the front foot policy wise, where to get good quality templates and how to ensure policy improves how your businesses works and reflects your values and operations.
