Europe says it wants less bureaucracy, but can simplification happen without diluting standards, delaying impact, or undermining credibility? This one-hour debate explores the extent at which simplification efforts are strengthening Europe's sustainability architecture, or slowly hollowing it out.
• Hear contrasting perspective from sustainability leaders and business voices, giving you a more rounded understanding of how simplification is being interpreted, challenged and implemented.
• Pressure test where simplification is removing friction versus where it is weakening standards, helping you critically assess which regulatory changes to support or challenge, or plan around within your organisation
• Sharpen your ability to articulate the risks and trade-offs of simplification internally, so you can engage boards and senior stakeholders on long-term value creation
• Identify the process and governance gaps that prevent context-specific biodiversity metrics from scaling into enterprise-level disclosures
• Strengthen reporting credibility by designing a shared measurement framework that accommodates the local variability of nature data: species, geography, community - without sacrificing comparability
• Inform your sustainable investment strategy by connecting nature-positive data outputs to the compliant disclosure your investors and audit committees need to act on
Continue the discussion in small-group roundtables focused on how technology is reshaping sustainability reporting in practice. Share experiences on integrating new tools into existing systems, reducing manual data collection, and embedding sustainability metrics into day-to-day operations across functions.
