The team helping to future-proof your business
See the steps your company can take towards a more sustainable future through our open resources.
The SME Climate Hub drives global efforts to strengthen small and medium-sized business resilience. We have created the go-to platform for SMEs to navigate shifting market conditions and decarbonize their businesses, ensuring they remain prosperous, competitive, and future-fit in the low-carbon economy of tomorrow.
Launched in 2020 in partnership with the Exponential Roadmap Initiative and the UN Climate Change High Level Champion’s Race to Zero campaign, the SME Climate Hub was built to solve a specific problem: SMEs were largely invisible in global efforts to address climate change. We created a “digital home” for this massive yet missing stakeholder, reducing complexity so that action became feasible.
Today, we are a proven global non-profit platform that has mobilized tens of thousands of businesses worldwide. Since the beginning of the decade, we have led a movement that has mainstreamed data-driven decarbonization for SMEs and simplified their climate action. Thanks to the SME Climate Hub, instead of wading through fragmented support or struggling to adapt corporate sustainability approaches into their own, smaller operations, these organizations now have free, accessible solutions that are fit for their businesses.
Thank you to our partners!
The SME Climate Hub works with a variety of stakeholders to support SMEs in their net zero journey.
