UKBBF’s Preparations for COP16: Empowering UK Businesses to Lead on Biodiversity

As we prepare for the UN CBD COP16 in Cali, Colombia, from 21st October to 1st November 2024, UKBBF is dedicated to supporting UK businesses in taking action on biodiversity. COP16 will be a crucial moment to demonstrate that UK businesses are playing a key role in reversing global biodiversity loss.

UKBBF will be running a series of briefings and events to keep UK businesses informed and engaged throughout COP16, providing insights into how the negotiations will impact business operations. We have just announced an exclusive pre-COP member briefing on 16th October, and we will soon provide dates for a series of open briefings for both members and non-members.

Key areas of focus for UKBBF at COP16 include:

• Promoting the commitments and activities of UK businesses addressing global biodiversity loss.
• Strengthening dialogue between UK businesses and international stakeholders to explore new nature-positive market opportunities.
• Keeping UK businesses updated on COP16 negotiations and their implications.

As an accredited observer at COP16, UKBBF will also host events showcasing how businesses can lead on the implementation of the global biodiversity framework, focusing on practical solutions and nature-positive outcomes.

Consider joining UKBBF to make the most of our COP16 activities and support.
