Some of Our Working Groups
We believe that the most important thing that we can share with you is the experience and accumulated wisdom of our members. Here is a selection of their experiences of working with 2degrees:
Mark Denham - MD, MAM (MITIE plc)
"Our Partnership with 2degrees has been extremely valuable in bringing together companies committed to positive action towards a low carbon future and firmly establishing MITIE as a leading provider of services and technology in the renewable and low carbon arena - we have considerably raised our profile within this marketplace and developed a pipeline of opportunities in excess of £20m."
Neil Harris - Head of Green Strategy, Cisco Systems
"Cisco see the effective engagement of our stakeholders as essential to achieving our sustainable business goals more effectively. Utilising networking technology and collaboration solutions such as 2degrees, sustainable business strategies success can be achieved with lower costs, reduced carbon footprints and crucially encouraging greater innovation".
Susan Kent - Oxfordshire County Council
"2degrees provides a quick and effective link to numerous organisations and individuals who want to share information, ideas and experiences. It's these sorts of links that are invaluable when you're trying to initiate change within an organisation, especially when it comes to reducing our dependence on carbon."
Alan Banks - Chief Executive Envirobusiness Ltd.
"The 2degrees Open Innovation Challenge helped us to identify a number of key relationships which we would not otherwise have found. This has allowed our client, Encapsuwaste, to fast -track their technology development to its first commercial deployment in a joint venture with a major UK automobile manufacturer"
Dave Challis - Head of Sustainability, Kimberly-Clark
"I'll be keeping up with DECC's changes to the CRC Energy Efficiency scheme on 2degrees. I've found their on and offline collaborations a great tool for making contacts and developing our sustainable business programme."
Michael Savonis - Senior Policy Adviser, U.S. Department of Transportation
"As one of the authors of the report, " Global Climate Change Impacts in the US", I can say the 2degrees webinar was a great opportunity for us to reach a critical constituency and to participate in meaningful dialogue with the business community. The turn-out and level of questions were fantastic, reflecting the high degree of knowledge and awareness on the topic of adaptation to a changing climate. My thanks to everyone who made this an exceptional event."
