About this Event
What does sustainability actually look like in practice, beyond the buzzwords and reports?
Join us at Edinburgh Remakery for our monthly Business Breakfast, where we bring together businesses and organisations for meaningful conversations, fresh ideas, and real collaboration, all over coffee and pastries in a relaxed, welcoming space.
Spotlight Session
We are delighted to welcome Rob Turnbull, Sustainability Manager at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC).
Rob leads the EICC’s approach to environmental sustainability, climate action, and social impact, with a strong focus on practical, data-driven solutions. From achieving a 60% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions to driving forward their Net Zero 2030 goals, Rob brings hands-on experience in making sustainability work in real-world business settings.
In this session, Rob will share:
- How the EICC is delivering sustainability through a triple bottom line approach
- Practical initiatives across energy, waste, catering, travel, and social impact
- Honest insights on what’s worked, what hasn’t, and lessons learned
- Real, actionable ideas that businesses of any size can apply
Whether you are just starting your sustainability journey or looking to strengthen your approach, this session offers grounded, practical guidance you can take away and use.
What to Expect
1) Networking & Connections
Meet like-minded businesses, explore collaborations, and build meaningful relationships in an informal setting.
2) SIXTY SECONDS | OVER TO YOU!
Take the stage for 60 seconds to introduce yourself and your business, a brilliant way to connect, share ideas, and spark opportunities.
3) BUSINESS BANTER
After the spotlight session, grab another coffee and continue the conversations, because great connections don’t happen in a rush.
4) TECH DONATIONS
Have unused/old tech? Bring it along and drop it into our Tech Donation Box. We will refurbish what we can, support people facing digital exclusion, and responsibly recycle the rest.
Every Pound Makes a Difference
This isn’t just networking. Every ticket helps us continue our mission to reduce waste and support communities. From gifting refurbished devices to those in need to running free repair cafes, your support creates real, lasting impact.
Don’t miss out on this inspiring and practical session.
