AXIOM Founder to Speak at The Waterline Summit

We’re delighted to announce that Axiom will be part of The Waterline Summit – the North of England’s biggest and most important decarbonization summit that connects the Humber to the goals outlined by COP26 – the 26^th UN Climate Change Conference.

At 2pm on Wednesday 20th October, AXIOM co-founder Daniel Usifoh will be joining representatives from Aura and East Riding Council in a discussion about sustainable supply chain management, procurement and innovation, titled: Moving to Green – Why? How? Who? When?

Delivered in partnership with East Riding of Yorkshire Council and Gateway Procurement, this discussion will explain in clear terms why businesses need to demonstrate green and sustainable credentials. It will explore what this means in practice for business and organisations, and the consequences and expectations that will be placed not only on our procurement processes, activities and customers – but also on individuals.

Daniel will be giving an overview of greening the supply chain – exploring why it’s necessary, and how your business can effectively implement sustainable procurement.  There will be real life case studies from local businesses in different sectors, and the opportunity for a wider discussion in interactive breakout sessions.

Waterline Summit – Working Together Towards a Sustainable Future

The need for businesses to advance their sustainability and demonstrate green credentials to customers, buyers and employees has never been more relevant. Next month, over 190 world leaders are arriving in Glasgow, Scotland to discuss the current climate crisis as part of the 26th UN Climate Change Conferences (COP26).

This event is particularly significant, as it is considered to be the world’s best and last chance to intervene and tackle the many complex challenges of climate change. We are therefore delighted to be involved in a local event that champions the same values of COP26, and look forward to sharing our expertise with like-minded people.

Measure & Demonstrate Sustainability in Supply Chain Performance with AXIOM

In order to achieve the ambitious Net Zero goals outlined by COP26, sustainable procurement is absolutely essential.

We believe it’s important for businesses to actively show that they are operating responsibly and doing their part in fighting climate change. However, we also recognise that to demonstrate sustainability, you need to be able to measure it.    

AXIOM is an advanced, cloud-based platform that helps businesses and their supply chains to become more sustainable – offering an extensive set of tools that enable businesses to measure, track and report on a full range of environmental, social and governance metrics. It is fully compliant with the SECR framework, and enables businesses to collate, calculate, track and report on all 17 of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
