ÅKP Touchbase Sustainability 2026

The Sustainability Forum is based on the idea that we improve by sharing experiences with others. In the forum, those responsible for sustainability from companies in the region meet, along with others who are curious about various aspects of the topic for regular gatherings and professional discussions. Relevant expertise on the subjects that the participants wish to learn more about is also brought in. 

In 2025, the forum has highlighted themes such as overarching frameworks, double materiality analysis, circular economy, circular business models, the framework related to green claims and green marketing, the voluntary reporting standard (VSME), and green organizational changes.

ÅKP continues its collaboration with ADVISO Law Firm on Touchbase Sustainability in 2026. ADVISO's legal expertise combined with ÅKP's network and tools creates a robust platform for the forum. 

- Touchbase Sustainability is an important arena for sharing knowledge and experience in sustainability work. ADVISO has a lot of expertise in environmental and sustainability regulation, which we share with companies navigating this jungle of terms and requirements through Touchbase Sustainability. At the same time, Touchbase Sustainability is a forum where participants have the opportunity to discuss issues among themselves, and we find that this leads to better outcomes for both the companies and us, says Karina Mauren at ADVISO. 

Sustainability work requires broad involvement of resource individuals across a company; including management, business development, finance, reporting, and product development. We want more people from each company to be able to participate in the forum, and we facilitate this by allowing a company that registers to send up to three of its employees to each forum.  

Following input from members, the topics for the first three networking forums in spring 2026 are set up:

05.02 Networking Forum 1 

In this forum, we will look at how to define sustainability goals for the company.

04.03 Networking Forum 2

The topic for networking forum 2 is preparedness and sustainability.

06.05 Networking Forum 3

The topic for the last networking forum of spring (forum 3) is a deep dive into LCA.

A detailed program will be sent out no later than one week before the meeting.

New for 2026:

Adviso will prepare a program related to a case company, which we will follow and work with until summer. The case will help form the basis for group assignments and discussions at the meetings.

Participation fee of 9500,- per calendar year per company (Includes participation of 3 people - carried over from 2025.)  Price for participation during the year can be discussed.
