Practice team webinar two - Sustainability in the optical industry
Sustainability is a journey not a destination. This webinar will demonstrate how a business in the optical industry has approached sustainability, why they have focused on this area and where they are going next. Using this case example, the speaker will outline what optical practices can do to embed sustainability into their team and their business (and to a degree their personal lives) offering practical quick wins and long-term strategies. The session will finish by explaining B-Corp certification, why it matters and why it could be something to work towards in practice.
