With the critical COP26 global gathering about to start in Glasgow on 1 November, Blue Earth Summit is a timely marker bringing together a cross section of eminently positive thinkers across business, the outdoor industries, elite sport, academia, politics, activism and sustainability to challenge us all to commit to values and habits for the common good in a region that is proud of it’s leadership, humility and creativity.
The summit is committed to three principles of ‘living and working sustainably’, ‘protecting our playgrounds’ and ‘inspiring a healthy outlook’. Day one of the event will see a programme of content designed to inspire attendees at The Marble Factory, involving keynote speakers such as Sir Tim Smit from The Eden Project which delivers educational inspiration in spades, biomes and geothermal energy, the Polar athlete and explorer Rosie Stancer as well as multi-award winning environmental entrepreneur Kresse Wesling. Panels hosted by Lucy Siegle and ethical business investor sessions will also be part of day one.
The second day is built around attendee experience, with the chance to get outdoors and take part in a range of activities, from trail running to surfing in partnership with Maverick Race, at The Wave, Bristol. The event’s keynote stage host will be Keme Nzerem, one of the most recognisable faces on Channel 4 and ITV News. Washington – Moscow – Johannesburg – Rio – London – for the past two decades Keme has reported from around the globe on wide ranging issues from corruption, politics, and human rights – to sport. His focus is always on people, and how global events impact the lives of ordinary folk.
There are a range of ticket options to suit individuals, business teams, investors and an all access option to spend time with our world class speaker line-up and investor community. With our work and home lives becoming increasingly interwoven amidst a global acceptance of the need to mitigate climate change, the summit is about defining the business of life.
