How we work with investors
Connecting capital with opportunity across the UK’s green economy

A Platform for Purpose-Driven Investment
The Sustainability Community works with institutional investors, venture funds, family offices, banks, and mission-led finance providers who want to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon, inclusive economy.
Through events, curated connections, and strategic visibility, we help investors identify emerging markets, meet credible partners, and stay close to the policy and place-based narratives shaping where capital will flow to.
Whether you’re deploying capital into net zero infrastructure, skills, circular economy innovation, or place-based regeneration — our events put you in the room with the people making it happen.
What We Offer Investors
We give investors direct access to:
Pipeline visibility across clean energy, circular economy, skills, and sustainable infrastructure
Place-based investment opportunities, including regeneration zones, innovation clusters, and public-private partnerships
Connections to combined authorities and central government stakeholders driving policy and funding alignment
Co-investors and strategic partners across corporate, civic, and third sectors
Insight into emerging ESG, climate, and impact investment trends
Upcoming Investment-Focused Engagements
