Small Business Sustainability Support program

Sustainability support for Small Business

As the world becomes more aware of the impacts of climate change, net zero regulations are affecting the supply chain decisions of industry, and sustainability credentials are becoming increasingly important in consumer spending decisions.

Being environmentally sustainable is not just a ‘nice thing to do’, but makes good business sense and can save money by reducing energy use and waste.

The Small Business Sustainability Support Program has been designed to help you develop strategies to improve your environmental sustainability, and to build the skills and capability to implement sustainable business practices.

Co-funded by the Department for Industry, Innovation and Science and the Department for Environment and Water, sustainability experts 2XE Pty Ltd will deliver the program for small businesses right across the state, including:

  • 18 free workshops in both metropolitan and regional areas for up to 360 small businesses
  • one-hour, 1:1 consultations with workshop participants
  • business sustainability assessments for 50 small businesses.

More information and timing of the other workshops will be coming soon, so stay tuned for workshops coming to your region.

Through education and guidance on implementation, this program will give you the tools to adapt, grow and succeed in a net zero future, improve your business sustainability and climate resilience, and open your business to new market opportunities.

Registrations for the first workshop are now open.
