stock of our ambitions and set ourselves new challenges for growth beyond the pandemic .
We thought about what we care about , what we are passionate about and how we could make a positive , disruptive change . As an exhibition manufacturer , we have prided ourselves in developing a circular approach to production with an emphasis on careful material choices , investing in quality stock and adapting designs to lengthen the lifespan of exhibition stands and ensuring we divert waste to landfi ll by re-using or recycling most of our materials .
In the event space , we want
to do more to preach what we practice by driving change in the economy . The opportunity arrived to bring Lee Etchells into the group as director of events and to bring with him his successful conference , Net Zero Scotland .
Since the last conference in 2019 much has changed , but the case for mitigating climate change by achieving a net zero economy by 2045 is louder and more urgent than ever .
Working together , we believe we have the scale and opportunity to grow the conference in Scotland , the UK and beyond .
Following on from COP26 and now more than ever
the world is focused on the impacts of climate change and the need to make real and meaningful change to the way our economies are built .
Rocket Events is excited to be delivering Net Zero Scotland on 29 March 2022 , in Edinburgh , and by the projects we are developing over the coming months . Through Lee ’ s leadership and the combined experience of our new team we have big ambitions to grow the conference into a programme of events and activities which will celebrate excellence in net zero innovation and create increased opportunities for around the UK and Europe
projects to seed and grow . This event is the latest step in our growth plans . The Rocket Group is expanding our services beyond construction , conference production and event management into training skills and development , digital marketing , and research . New conferences and events are in development and will be launched in 2022 , and we are keen to speak with partners with a like-minded ambition to try new things . We are particularly keen to speak with event organisers , venues , and technology companies . Contact Ben MacCorquodale via email ben @ therocketgroup . co . uk
