About this event
Scope 3 is no longer a side conversation for sustainability teams. It is now shaping how companies think about operations, supplier relationships, talent strategy, and credibility with employees, customers, and stakeholders. If you work at the intersection of ESG, people, and business accountability, this event is designed to give you a more practical handle on what Scope 3 means and what to do about it. This is an in-person gathering for ESG and HR leaders who want sharper thinking, useful peer exchange, and grounded discussion about one of the hardest parts of climate reporting and action. Expect a room of people asking real questions: how to measure what matters, how to work across functions, and how to turn climate goals into decisions that hold up inside an organization. About the Event This event brings together leaders who are dealing with the operational and organizational reality of Scope 3 emissions. For many companies, Scope 3 is where the biggest climate impact sits, but it is also where the data is hardest to collect, the ownership is least clear, and the collaboration requirements are highest. That makes it especially relevant not just for ESG teams, but for HR leaders helping organizations build alignment, accountability, and internal capability. The focus here is practical. Rather than treating Scope 3 as a purely technical reporting issue, the event centers on how organizations can make progress across teams, functions, and decision-makers. ESG leaders will recognize the pressure to improve disclosures and strategy. HR leaders will recognize the challenge of influencing behavior, shaping culture, and embedding new priorities into how work gets done. Because this is an in-person event, the format is built for conversation as much as content. You can expect a mix of structured discussion and networking with professionals facing similar pressures in climate, reporting, workforce strategy, and organizational change. What to Expect You should come ready for a morning that is focused, professional, and interactive. The event begins at 9:00 AM EDT on Friday, September 27 and is set up to help attendees quickly get into substantive conversation. Topics are likely to center on the real-world questions ESG and HR leaders are actively managing, including: How Scope 3 challenges show up inside complex organizations Where ESG and HR priorities overlap in practice What cross-functional collaboration actually requires How leaders can build internal momentum around climate-related goals Ways to approach accountability, engagement, and organizational buy-in In addition to discussion, one of the biggest benefits of this format is the chance to compare notes with peers in the room. You may hear how others are framing Scope 3 internally, where they are getting stuck, and what kinds of approaches are helping teams move from ambition to execution. Expect a balance of insight and exchange. This is not just about listening; it is about leaving with clearer language, better questions, and stronger context for the decisions ahead. Why Attend If Scope 3 feels complex, that is because it is. It spans supply chains, purchasing decisions, business travel, employee behavior, vendor engagement, reporting standards, and internal governance. No single function can solve it alone. That is exactly why this event is valuable: it creates space for ESG and HR leaders to think together about a challenge that demands both technical understanding and organizational leadership. For ESG professionals, the value is in broadening the conversation beyond compliance and disclosure. You will be in a setting where you can explore how internal structures, incentives, and communication affect climate progress. For HR leaders, this is a chance to engage with a topic that increasingly touches workforce strategy, leadership expectations, culture, and change management. You should also attend if you are looking for stronger peer context. Sometimes the most useful takeaway from an event is not a single answer, but a sharper view of how others are approaching the same issue. Hearing how peers frame ownership, collaboration, and execution can help you pressure-test your own approach. You will leave better equipped to: Understand why Scope 3 matters across more than one function Spot where people strategy and ESG strategy can reinforce each other Ask better internal questions about ownership, process, and accountability Build more informed conversations with colleagues and stakeholders Connect with professionals working through similar priorities Practical Details This is an in-person event in New York, USA, hosted at Enter on 8th Ave. Check-in will take place at the reception table, so plan to arrive with enough time to get settled before the start.
