This event is about helping businesses achieve better outcomes for the planet while offering them the tools to take actionable steps. We've seen significant growth each year, and Coventry, with its focus on green technologies, is the perfect place for this expansion. At future Net Zero, we want to give something back to the industry for a sustainable future.”

The Big Zero Show aims to attract more than 2,250 visitors over the two-day event, utilising a wide range of spaces at the Coventry Building Society Arena, including the main exhibition halls and lecture theatre.
