At The Sustainability Community, we’re building a global sustainability network, region by region, to grow the Green Economy and accelerate the transition to Net Zero.

With over 20,000 sustainability leaders in our network, we host national conferences, networking dinners and  roundtable discussions with leaders. Our events are a place where leaders meet to drive the transition by accelerating the commercialisation, investment and networking needed to reach a national picture of Net Zero, as well as a platform for thought leadership which shapes regional and national policy.

In the last 2 years, we’ve welcomed over 4,000 people to in-person events and in 2025 and 2026, we’re expanding into 6-8 regions across the UK to power the UK’s transition to Net Zero and drive inward investment. The world is adapting quickly to the rising challenge of climate change, and businesses are already leading the transition. The growing sustainability community needs a platform to connect, collaborate, and accelerate progress – to transform the UK economy and unlock the opportunities this shift is creating. That’s why we’ve built it for you.

Why Engage with The Sustainability Community?

We believe the green transition will be delivered by people and powered by collaboration. That’s why we’ve built The Sustainability Community to connect the leaders, doers, and innovators driving change in the Green Economy across the UK.

Whether you’re a seasoned sustainability professional or just starting your journey, our network is for anyone serious about building a fairer, low-carbon future, and sharing the learning from those already doing it.

If you’re looking to engage with high growth opportunities, driving economic productivity, meeting with industry-leading partners, and sharing practical solutions that shape the future economy, this is the community for you.

Driving Commercialisation and Investment

At the heart of The Sustainability Community is a focus on action. We connect businesses with the investment and partnerships they need to scale, enable local and central government to engage directly with industry, and give investors a clear route to both.

Our events are designed to go beyond conversation, creating real opportunities for commercialisation by bringing together innovators, investors, corporates, and policymakers under one roof.

From connecting start-ups with capital, to supporting established businesses in finding partners and markets, we create the conditions where deals can be done and growth can happen. Every conference, dinner, and roundtable is carefully curated to spark collaboration and accelerate the flow of finance into the UK’s Green Economy.

In a sector where speed and scale are essential, we act as a catalyst — helping businesses move from ambition to delivery, and from ideas to investment. By engaging with our community, you’re not just joining the conversation on sustainability; you’re stepping into a marketplace for solutions, capital, and partnerships that can shape the future economy.
