Join us for our annual Biodiversity Showcase on Tuesday 3 June from 1pm - 3pm (arrivals from 12:30pm, followed by networking drinks from 3pm-4pm), which will highlight cutting-edge digital technologies and practical solutions for the improved monitoring, preservation, and restoration of biodiversity across the UK. This event is free and open to all.

Protecting biodiversity is crucial for preserving the natural world and maintaining the health and resilience of our environment. Ecosystems today face threats from climate change and habitat loss, and the evidence is clear that nature in the UK is being lost at an unsustainable rate. One in six species are at risk of being lost in Great Britain, and the UK today is estimated to have only half its biodiversity remaining. 

This trend must be reversed, and tech will surely be part of the solution. At our Biodiversity Showcase 2025, hear 10-minute pitches from top tech companies and experts in the field like Verna Earth, Karno, Rethink Carbon, and more, showcasing practical, tech-led solutions.

What to expect

  • Innovative tech presentations: Listen to brief, impactful 10-minute pitches from top tech firms and experts showcasing their cutting-edge solutions for biodiversity monitoring, habitat protection, and conservation efforts. 
  • Interactive Q&A session: Engage with experts during a comprehensive Q&A session.
  • Networking: Enjoy networking afterwards to discuss shared challenges and connect with like-minded professionals.

Who should attend

  • Tech sector innovators
  • Sustainability professionals
  • Government officials
  • Investors
