My Green Lab, Sustainability Made Simple, and the International Living Future Institute invite you to join the Procurement ACTivists.
​

What are the Procurement ACTivists?
The Procurement ACTivists are a collaboration of leading life science and healthcare organizations who are working to create the world’s first sustainable procurement policies for laboratories.
The Procurement ACTivists focuses on key leverage points to drive industry-wide change:
  • Sharing innovative strategies and best practices within life science and healthcare organizations
  • Aggregating purchasing power for sustainable products
  • Sharing a collective voice to empower and create change in the life sciences industry
  • Collectively define what is a sustainable manufacturer in the life science industry
  • Support sustainable procurement by recognizing products that have undergone that ACT label that supports transparency, optimization or products in its use phase, manufacturing operations and supply chains
  • Challenge both manufacturers and suppliers to better communicate and integrate sustainability initiatives
When will the Procurement ACTivists group meet?
  • Our first meeting will be February 20th at 9am PST via teleconference.  
  • We will also meet in person on May 6th at CleanMed and October 8th at the Living Product Expo
Please RSVP by February 1st to join our first meeting.  And please feel free to share the attached invitation with your colleagues.
Why did the Procurement ACTivists start?
Collectively, procurement specialists around the world have the power to affect transformative change in the laboratory products industry. The Procurement ACTivist group will be the place for procurement specialists to join together to make their voices heard.
In the words of Simon Sinek, “Words can inspire, but it’s action that creates change”. This group will inspire sustainable action among each organization, and share best practices for integrating the ACT label into existing procurement platforms. It will take all of us to create the change we need. We are looking for new members to join this group. If you are actively building a sustainability program or thinking of starting, please contact us for more information.
