Supplier engagement: What’s worked, what hasn’t
Led by the 1.5° Supply Chain Leaders
Reaching net zero emissions by 2050 demands bold, coordinated action across entire value chains—and suppliers are a pivotal part of that transformation. As companies deepen their climate commitments, supplier engagement has emerged as both a critical lever and a persistent challenge.
This session will explore what’s working—and what isn’t—when it comes to engaging suppliers on climate action. From practical experiences and proven approaches to persistent barriers and lessons learned, we’ll take stock of the progress made and where gaps remain. Participants will gain insights into how leading organizations are navigating supplier dynamics, building capacity, and leveraging tools and frameworks to turn ambition into action.
