BETS Expo 17-18 June 08

BETS Expo 2008 provided the perfect environment for gaining insight into business support provision, environmental technologies and services, enabling greener business growth in the future.

Organised by Bristol City Council’s BETS (Bristol Environmental Technologies & Services Sector Initiative), the business-to-business conference and exhibition brought together a rich diversity of delegates, providing the ability to cut through the ‘greenwash’ and share best practice environmental initiatives, that can help turn the UK’s low-carbon challenge into a reality.

 

Over 230 delegates attended this 2 day conference and expo.  BETS Expo 08 provided the opportunity to access a wide selection of key businesses and organisations present at the tradeshow, to participate in a comprehensive programme with a wide selection of plenary sessions, workshops and seminars, and 3 unique project tours.
