We’re building a global sustainability network, region by region.
The world is adapting quickly to the rising challenge of climate change. Change is coming to the business world – because it has to. The growing sustainability business community needs a platform to meet, connect and support each other to transform the UK economy and maximise on the opportunities that this change brings. So, we’ve created it for you.
Why Engage?
We believe in the power of business to drive change, and you can be part of it. Whether you’re a seasoned sustainability expert or just starting out, our community and our events are for anyone who wants to collaborate with experts in the field and learn more about initiatives that are already happening across the UK.
From round-table discussions, national conferences hearing from leading keynote speakers and exciting opportunities to share your news, we have a community of over 12,000 sustainability leaders. In the last 18 months, The Sustainability Community has brought together over 2,000 people to in person events across the North of England. In 2024 and 2025, we’ll be expanding beyond the North and looking to support the whole nation.
Come and be a part of it!
“We are delighted that Yorkshire Sustainability Festival is to be hosted in our city. We are one of the leading cities in the UK for taking climate action and are working hard towards becoming the first UK net zero city. The festival of events will help share this ambition while shining a light on the trailblazers of sustainable innovation from across Yorkshire, pathing the way for a brighter and greener future.”

Of all the events we’ve been to, it’s up there with the best and most useful ones for us. We picked up a good number of leads, and some great collaboration opportunities. Sometimes events are a waste of time for us, but this one has restored my faith.
