Aligned Around Common Goals: Kick-off Meeting with the Members of the Net Zero Advisory Board
The Net Zero Advisory Board held an online meeting on 29 January with the aim of enabling members to share their organisations’ plans, objectives and key events for 2026, as well as their main professional priorities for the coming year.
At the beginning of the meeting, Attila Chikán Jr., President of BCSDH, welcomed the participants.
The board then reviewed the changes in its membership, after which members presented their planned activities for 2026, along with potential areas for connection and collaboration that could contribute to achieving the shared net zero goals.
During the discussion, several potential synergies already emerged. One of the key upcoming events will be the European Circular Economy Hotspot, the hosting rights of which were awarded to BCSDH through a competitive application process.
The meeting was moderated by Irén Márta, Managing Director of BCSDH.
