Building a Stronger Wolverhampton Business Economy - Driving Social Value

Join us for a powerful and interactive morning session designed to help businesses understand and embrace social value while aligning with evolving ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) principles.

As sustainability, ethics, and community impact become increasingly important in procurement and business growth, this session will provide you with the practical knowledge and tools to make a real difference — both socially and commercially.

You’ll discover:
🌱 How to embed social value into your day-to-day operations and demonstrate measurable impact.
📜 An overview of the new Procurement Act – what it means for your business and how to take advantage of upcoming opportunities.
💷 The Wolverhampton Pound initiative – learn how keeping spending local can strengthen our city’s economy and create a thriving community network.
💡 Funding and social investment insights from a guest speaker, sharing real opportunities for growth and support.

This event is ideal for businesses, CICs, and social enterprises looking to enhance their impact, build stronger community connections, and position themselves for success in a changing economic landscape.

There will also be opportunities to network with like-minded professionals, share ideas, and explore collaborations that create lasting value for Wolverhampton and beyond.
