'Sustainable Synergies' is a workshop series hosted by the Centre for Sustainable Business at King’s Business School. This series is designed to harness and unite the diverse expertise within King’s College London, fostering a collaborative environment for sustainability-related grant applications.

We are delighted to launch the second Grant Development Workshop in our Sustainable Synergies Series: Digital Sustainability.

Hosted by the Centre for Sustainable Business (CSB) in partnership with the King’s Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI), the workshop will invite attendees to discuss and problem-solve the complex challenges of digital sustainability.
