Chapter Zero Slovenia Launch Event

When 09:00 - 11:00

We are kindly inviting you to join us at the Chapter Zero Slovenia launch event,
on 18 April 2023 at 9am at Kristalna palača, BTC, Ljubljana

Chapter Zero Slovenia is a climate change initiative that aims to create a community of supervisory board members and management to equip them with the expertise to lead the debate on the impacts of climate change. In doing so, Chapter Zero Slovenia joins the global Climate Governance Initiative, which supports the development of the competences of supervisory and management bodies to make climate change a boardroom priority. As one of global chapters, Chapter Zero Slovenia will enable Slovenian business leaders to learn from the companies from around the world that are already integrating climate considerations into their decision-making processes.

The event is held under the honorary patronage of the President of the Republic of Slovenia, Nataša Pirc Musar, PhD.
