Social Value isn't just about people – it’s also about stopping the planet from overheating. 

Over 120 councils have declared a climate emergency and 73 have said they will deliver Net Zero by 2030. But how will this work, and does it conflict with or complement our Social Value obligations?

But Social Value isn't just about what you do - it's about how you do it. So - how do we avoid Social Value being a passing passion by getting businesses to embed it into their culture?

Speakers:

- Mark Leaver, Manchester City Council
- Jimmy Brannigan, Net Positive Futures
- Arnab Dutt OBE, Federation of Small Businesses
- Chair: Chris Clarke, SCAPE
