Sustainable Ventures are on a mission to develop 1,000 climate tech businesses by 2025, and so far have directly supported over 800 startups and helped to create 6,500 green jobs. Their industry-leading business support programmes and workspaces are designed in partnership with local authorities and government bodies looking to strengthen green economies at a national and local level.
Any local authorities with a climate agenda or a focus on climate policy, improving the green economy and closing the green skills gap
In January 2022, we received funding from the Lambeth Economic Resilience Fund to launch a two-and-a-half-year program designed to help Lambeth’s SMEs expand, raise climate awareness, and strengthen community bonds.
Through our targeted programs, we’ve supported:
- 50 climate startups and scale-ups in Lambeth to achieve critical growth milestones with tailored business support and mentoring (1:1 Business Support).
- 89 Lambeth SMEs with Net Zero training, equipping them with the tools and knowledge to develop their own Net Zero strategies (Net Zero Guidebook and 1:1)
- 13 partnerships between established organisations in Lambeth and climate-focused startups, driving innovative solutions to pressing sustainability challenges (Innovation Challenge)
We are incredibly proud of the close and collaborative relationship we have fostered with Lambeth Council and the subsequent climate impact that we have been able to create in the borough.
We consider our collaboration with Lambeth, across Workspace and Programmes to be the gold standard of climate tech partnerships.
Programmes & Workspace offerings are customised to suit local authorities’ needs. Budgets can be tailored accordingly.

Dr Jacqui Dyer MBE, Lambeth Council's Cabinet Member for Inclusive Economy and Equalities, says:
“The partnership between Lambeth Council and Sustainable Ventures has created lots of opportunities in the borough and really highlights Lambeth's commitment to fostering climate tech innovation and sustainable solutions."
“Sustainable Ventures is the perfect partner to deliver on this, being Europe’s largest climate tech hub… Through our support, we greatly increase the opportunity for growth of these start-ups - and as a result, bring more investment and job opportunities into the borough.”
