Sustainability for Growth:Practical Steps for Your Business

Hertfordshire Futures, in partnership with Sustainable X and Hertfordshire Growth Hub, presents an intensive business sustainability workshop designed to help you take practical steps that deliver real business value through sustainability.

Sustainability is no longer optional. Customers, employees, investors, and regulators increasingly expect businesses to act on environmental, social, and economic issues. But sustainability isn’t just about climate—it’s about improving efficiency, cutting costs, winning new business, and building a stronger, more resilient company.

Small and medium sized businesses (SMEs) , which make up over 99% of UK businesses and contribute nearly half of business emissions, are uniquely positioned to lead the way. This workshop gives you the tools, insights, and strategies to start or accelerate your sustainability journey—with a focus on practical action that drives performance and growth.

This 4 hour interactive workshop is led by award-winning sustainability consultancy, Sustainable X, and will provide:

• Expert-led training on practical sustainability strategies
• Take-home resources to implement immediately
• Networking opportunities with like-minded businesses

Key Takeaways:

• A clear understanding of what sustainability means for your business

• Practical tools to take immediate action

• Confidence to respond to customer, investor, and tender requirements

• A roadmap to drive performance, resilience, and reputation

This workshop is designed for Hertfordshire-based businesses with employees that are:

• Exploring or refining their sustainability strategy
• Facing customer questions about Sustainability, Net Zero, ESG, or Social Value
