At the Business Forum, The Climate Group’s Unlocking the Value in Low-Carbon Innovation session will bring together business and Government leaders to share experiences on successful low-carbon innovations from a systems perspective, explore how these innovations are driving corporate strategy, and examine the political conditions needed to supports their large-scale uptake. Join us.     No Paper? No Problem! Stay tuned for the C4C Business Forum Mobile App The Forum aims to use as little paper as possible - this means almost no publications, agendas and flyers! Instead, the Forum will use a customized application allowing participants to easily navigate the sessions, speakers, materials and much more. In the days before the Forum, participants will receive directions for accessing the application on their own device (e.g., iPhone, iPad, Blackberry, Android). Stay tuned for more details!   Visit the Caring for Climate website to learn more about upcoming engagement opportunities.   Published 5 November 2013
