Recruitment process
About Sustainable Ventures
We’re Europe’s largest ecosystem of climate tech startups. Following our expansion of our Central London headquarters, and the recent opening of our Central Manchester workspace, we’re focused on our mission to develop 1000 new businesses by 2025, and expand our operations across UK regions.
Our impact on the planet’s climate and its natural resources is being felt more often and by more people than ever before. It is clear that significant changes must be made to achieve the targets set by the IPCC and reach Net Zero by 2050. This presents the world’s biggest challenge and it is something that SV has been addressing since 2011.
We believe in the power of commercial innovation to address the twin challenges of climate change and resource scarcity.
