A Sustainable Brand Tour × Rainforest Eco-Exhibition × Hands-on Zero-Waste Practices
The University of Manchester China Centre is kicking off a special ESG alumni company-visit series to mark the 60th anniversary of Alliance Manchester Business School (AMBS). Each stop brings us inside the workplaces of our own graduates to see how ESG is turned from buzzword into real-world impact—and to spark collaborations that accelerate a sustainable future.
The second stop—“Going Green: Alumni ESG Innovation & Sustainable Living”—takes us inside sustainable brand SAFONE, pairs the tour with the “Good to Rainforest” Exhibition, and rounds out the afternoon with insights on responsible consumption and conservation.
