This event is for BSR members only. Members, please log in to register.

Join BSR and SBTi for a webinar to have an early look at the Corporate Net-Zero Standard Revision. During the webinar, we will dig into why the Standard is being revised, the objectives for the revision, the expected development and consultation process and timeline, as well as the key proposed changes from the existing standard.

We will wrap the webinar with a facilitated Q&A, a great opportunity for BSR members to ask questions. This webinar will prepare you to submit comments in the public consultation process. The SBTi consultation is open from March 18th until June 1st.
