Net Zero 360 X Venturefest South

The Net Zero revolution presents a unique opportunity for business. Committing to it can make your business a force for good, while simultaneously locking in resilience, sustainable growth, and enabling a range of benefits such as attracting investors/commercial partners; driving innovation capacity; and enhancing your competitive edge.

But where do you start, and how do you work out what’s right for you?

We’ve teamed up with Southampton City Council and Venturefest South to offer this in-person 90 minute masterclass introducing you to Net Zero 360 – our net zero business accelerator.

You’ll learn how to get started, what support and incentives are available, and the key opportunities to grow your business greener and better.

Places are limited so do book early. Each participant for this workshop will get free admission to Venturefest South.
