The shift towards a low-carbon, nature-positive economy is creating new markets, driving innovation, and reshaping what success looks like in every sector. The challenge for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is knowing where to start and how to move forward with confidence.

That’s where the UK Business Climate Hub comes in.

The Hub is the UK’s go-to source for practical, trusted sustainability and net zero guidance for SMEs. Backed by government and industry, it provides clear, accessible resources to help businesses cut costs, improve efficiency, and seize the commercial opportunities of the green economy. Whether a business is just starting out on its sustainability journey or looking to accelerate progress, the Hub meets them where they are – offering everything from quick wins to deeper strategic advice.

Just some of the resources available on the hub:

• Funding and support library
• 'Get to net zero' tool
• Sector guidance
• Case studies
• Thought leadership
• Event listing
• UK Net Zero Business Census
• 7 steps to sustainability

In a volatile economic climate, these resources aren’t a “nice to have”; they’re essential. Energy efficiency measures can lower overheads. Meeting growing customer demand for sustainable products and services can open up new markets. Demonstrating strong environmental credentials can improve access to finance and supply chains. Far from being a cost burden, climate action can be a driver of resilience and growth.

The UK Business Climate Hub is uniquely placed to reach SMEs thanks to the powerful coalition behind it. The Hub brings together 25 major organisations, including the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), leading business groups, energy networks, high street banks, professional bodies, and the international SME Climate Hub. This breadth of support ensures that trusted guidance reaches businesses in every corner of the economy.

The Hub is managed by the Broadway Initiative, which played a pioneering role in bringing this coalition together. Our mission has always been to unite different parts of the economy to deliver practical solutions for reaching the UK’s net zero and environmental goals. The UK Business Climate Hub is a prime example of this approach in action – a single, trusted platform making it easier for businesses to take action that’s good for both the planet and the bottom line.

In uncertain times, clarity and direction matter. The UK Business Climate Hub offers both – helping businesses navigate change, build resilience, and grow in the green economy.
