Due to the striking similarities in regards to the goal of their members the PEF World Forum and The Sustainability Consortium decided to join forces and hold both events at the same location back-to-back with joint sessions and receptions. On October 1 there will be collective sessions focusing on the EU Environmental Footprint initiative, the first outcomes after one year of piloting, leading business perspectives and new ways of consumer communication. Additionally, motivation and practical experience from TSC, PEF World Forum and its members will be discussed.

This session will provide plenty of networking opportunities, such as joint lunch break and networking dinner as well as open space and other interaction techniques (e.g. talk-and-walk).
