UK Export Academy's sustainability month – upcoming webinars
Watch up to seven webinars covering key topics around becoming a sustainable business
The UK Export Academy from the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) gives businesses the know-how to sell to customers around the world by learning from experts in international trade.
It is open to any business in the UK that has a product or service that can be sold internationally. It is for businesses who know that they want to reach international customers and contracts in the future, as well as those who might already be selling beyond the UK and want to expand into new markets.
Sustainability is key for future growth, both in the UK and on a global scale. These upcoming sustainability webinars will help you:
- understand key legislation such as Net Zero, CBAM and ESG
- get to grips with EU packaging rules
- explore how to use digital trade documentation
