Development and Sustainability Forum

Join us for the new for 2026 Development and Sustainability Forum, a practical, action-oriented space bringing together leaders from business, policy, infrastructure, planning, energy and place.

This first forum will set the ambition, principles and direction of the series, creating a shared understanding of how sustainable development and energy infrastructure support jobs, net zero delivery and prosperous places across the North East. The session will combine short scene-setting contributions (content TBC), networking, and interactive discussion.

Attendees can expect open conversation, cross-sector insight and the opportunity to help shape the Forum’s priorities and themes for 2026. The event is designed to support collaboration, inform decision-making and position the Forum as a trusted convening space for the region.

Hosted by North East Chamber of Commerce, with contributions from regional partners including Northern Powergrid (speakers and agenda TBC).
