Our Impact | Sustainable Network

Global change requires global action. Each and every one of us has a responsibility to our planet and to each other, to live more sustainably.

The team at Sustainable Network, both as a collective and as individuals, truly care about the difference we can make to this planet.

Our team has a diverse and varied set of skills and experience, but we stand together behind one uniting goal, which is to support the world's accelerating transition to a sustainable economy.

We joined forces to launch Sustainable Network because we realised that the best way for us to have impact was by supporting visionary entrepreneurs who were looking to make positive environmental and societal change in the world.

We provide these founders with all the supporting services and funding they need to thrive in business whilst ensuring that they operate within a sustainable business model.

Once we agree to work with a new company, we consider ourselves in this relationship for the long haul. We do not walk away when the funding period is complete. We continue to monitor the ongoing sustainability performance of our portfolio companies and provide ongoing support as required. In this way, we can show our stakeholders the quantitative and measured positive impact that is a direct result of our engagement.
