Sustainability

Grow to your full potential by bringing your business to London. The world's first National Park City, London is committed to being greener, cleaner and ready for the future, making it the perfect place for sustainability-focused businesses to flourish.

London going green

London was one of the first cities in the world to publish a climate plan compatible with the highest ambition of the Paris Agreement and has committed to being net zero carbon by 2030 and zero waste by 2050.

London offers an unrivalled melting pot of talent, creativity, innovation and access to funds to support rapid green business growth and the transition to net zero.

Going green – the business opportunity

There are many benefits to going green and choosing London can help you transform into a stronger, more resilient business. Embracing ESG and being able to demonstrate your commitment to sustainability – and, ideally, net zero – has become a necessity for all businesses. And, as noted by KPMG, those who fail lose customers, employees and financing (source: KPMG).
