Local: Funding to reduce your business carbon footprint
This year's University2Business: Facing the Clean Growth Challenge saw a wide range of attendees passionate about reducing their carbon footprint and the ways in which we can all work together to meet the clean growth challenge.
The EMphasis3 CO2 Reductions project was launched at the event, and businesses in the south will now be able to bid for a share of over £600,000.
