Summit

The My Green Lab Global Summit 2025

This event will unite the global scientific community to confront the most urgent sustainability challenges of our time. This year’s theme, Rising to the Challenge, addresses both the urgency and the opportunity facing science, from adapting to a shifting regulatory and funding landscape to strengthening trust through transparency and third party verification.

During the summit, we will spotlight the newly enhanced My Green Lab® Certification and ACT® Ecolabel programs, sharing early successes and real-world impact from organizations leading the way. You’ll also hear progress updates from our three-year strategic plan and learn how our tools are uniquely positioned to help organizations navigate evolving global regulations around lab sustainability, especially those targeting greenwashing.

Speakers from around the world will share bold ideas and practical strategies to help science remain a powerful force for progress, even as it faces political and economic headwinds.

This global gathering will foster resilience, action, and collaboration. Whether you’re just beginning your sustainability journey or driving it forward, the 2025 Summit will challenge and inspire you to go further. Let’s rise to the challenge together.

Advance Through Geopolitical Shifts, Refine Your ESG Strategy, & Demonstrate Business Value to Gain a Competitive Advantage, Reduce Risks, & Drive Meaningful Outcomes for People & the Planet

In 2025, ESG professionals in life sciences face more complexity and more pressure than ever before. Political headwinds in the U.S., reporting rollbacks in Europe, and increasing scrutiny from stakeholders have made ESG initiatives an increasingly polarized area of the business. However, amid shifting priorities and blurred regulatory boundaries, one thing remains constant: the undeniable value of ESG as a driver of innovation, resilience, and positive impact across business, people, patients, and the planet.

At a time when resources are tighter, internal alignment is harder to secure, and Scope 3 emissions and decarbonization remain persistent challenges, the 4th ESG in Life Sciences Summit East returns as the industry’s most trusted and practical forum for sustainability leaders in pharma, biotech, medtech, and life sciences services.

Whether you're working to build internal buy-in, align sustainability with commercial goals, strengthen supplier collaboration, or navigate emerging reporting expectations, this summit is designed to meet you where you are - and help you move forward.

Built with expert insights from both industry giants and SMEs, the 2025 agenda will tackle your most pressing challenges head-on. From reporting strategy and stakeholder engagement to supply chain optimization and climate risk management, you’ll leave with the insights and tools you need to keep ESG a central pillar of long-term success - even in the face of uncertainty.

We are living in a moment of extraordinary change. With sustainability under pressure across sectors – educators and practitioners face both crisis and opportunity. Building on the successes of the 2023 and 2024 Forums, the virtual 2025 Sustainability Education Forum (SEF) on June 5 & 6 invites you to come together not just to exchange ideas, but to step into a deeper role: as catalysts and bold leaders. Together, we’ll share strategies, strengthen our schools and institutions, and shape the future of sustainability education in practical ways.

Our community is grappling with rising anxiety, political backlash, and systemic barriers to sustainability, climate and justice work. Additionally, educators are seeing growing pressures—from budget concerns and political debates to generational shifts in student expectations. This forum is your space to tackle that reality head-on—with courage, creativity, and collective insight. The SEF 2025 is not just a conference—it’s a space for authentic conversations, creative problem-solving, and meaningful collaboration where you set the agenda. Using a dynamic, participant-led model, you’ll choose the conversations that matter most, connect with peers, co-create solutions in real time and walk away with new tools and ideas ready to implement.

What to Expect

• Two days of highly participatory, peer-driven dialogue shaped by the needs and questions of the moment.
• Pre-scheduled “Invitation” sessions with speakers addressing climate justice and cultural climate change—anchoring our time together with depth and perspective.
• “Open Space” engaging discussions where you choose the topics—centered on the urgent questions we’re all carrying
• Opportunities to share your insights, ask critical questions, and refine your sustainability education approach
• A global community of like-minded educators who share your sense of urgency and commitment to action
• No travel required—connect deeply, save resources, and engage fully in an immersive online experience!

Who Should Attend?

This space is open to anyone in the sustainability education community:

• Faculty in any discipline incorporating sustainability education
• Educators developing sustainability literacy, curricula or degree programs
• Sustainability staff supporting academic initiatives
• Instructional designers helping faculty integrate sustainability into courses
• Anyone passionate about advancing sustainability education in higher education

Throughout the SEF, you will have plenty of chances to exchange ideas and make new professional connections, while gaining inspiration and an opportunity to recharge your own efforts. In tough times, strong networks and focused conversations make all the difference.
