The Science Based Targets (SBTs) initiative helps companies set climate targets that are consistent with the latest climate science. A particular focus of SBTs is on supplier engagement, as 90% or more of companies‘ emissions occur in their supply chains. Corporations have to work closely with their suppliers to set and achieve their SBTs. How does a major global company still on the path of climate transformation, like Coca Cola, deal with this challenge?

That’s what we’ll find out at CHOICE Event #53 from Cornelia Folz of Coca-Cola Europacific Partners Germany. Among other things, she will address questions such as:

• What exactly is the role of supplier engagement in SBTs and why?
• What are the biggest hurdles Coca Cola has faced so far in engaging suppliers?
• Which best practices have proven effective in working with suppliers to implement climate targets?
• How can suppliers also be encouraged and supported to set their own SBTs?
