About this Event

The Northern Sustainability Summit is back for 2026! It will bring together hundreds of business leaders from all sectors, from those leading on sustainability to those who are in the early stages of their journey.
Hosted at the iconic Manchester Central, last year’s event included over 40 speakers, 45 exhibitors, four workshops and over 1000 registered delegates.
The focus for 2026 is a return to Elevate's central belief: that business can, and should, be a force for good. We will explore how to blend profits with purpose, and how we can better collaborate to meet both sustainability and commercial targets.
The main stage content (running in the morning) will be a mix of panels, keynotes at lightning talks. The afternoon will several breakout workshops. Topics will include skills, finance, tech, property, tourism and social impact .
The exhibition hall includes our “incubator within an incubator” competition winners (applications open in February), sponsors and partners.
Please contact Ilona ([email protected]) for information on sponsoring or exhibiting at the event.
Previous sponsors and partners include: Electricity North West, GMCA, North West Net Zero, Castlefield, Perfect Sense Energy, Arcadis, CEAMS, PHA North, the University of Salford and Manchester Metropolitan University.
