This two day, online conference brought together Perth’s biggest employers, local companies, local organisations and our Local Authority together with international guests and national partners to advance this vision and help to deliver the Perth City Plan and our ambition to become Scotland’s first carbon neutral City by 2040.
With a keynote address from former Mayor of Copenhagen, Bo Asmus Kjeldgaard, packed with European examples of good practice on city wide approaches and sector based examples of a green future. We introduced the working group leads who will be driving the Leadership Forum’s ambition.
The second day focussed on practical, hands on workshops to advance key themes for Perth’s sustainable future including innovation, transport, placemaking, food, environment, energy, resources, waste and fairness among others. These will showcase and involve companies and organisations from Perth and beyond.
Following the conference, the Leadership Forum will shape its work programme for the year ahead.
