Step Up to Net Zero supports Glasgow SMEs in their efforts to reach net zero by funding six-month work placements who will help organisations take action towards net zero and circular goals. This project aims to support the city’s net zero ambitions and provides employability support for Glasgow’s workforce.
The net zero transition offers a significant opportunity to develop Scotland’s future economy and, given Glasgow’s target to become net zero by 2030, businesses will play a key part in meeting this goal. Step Up to Net Zero has a proven record of supporting Glasgow businesses to adapt, innovate and kickstart their net zero and circular journey.
Step Up to Net Zero provides funded support to Glasgow SMEs to take steps towards adopting more circular practices to meet the city’s decarbonisation and net zero targets.
Participating organisations will be provided with a bespoke Action Plan, and benefit from the support of a six-month funded work placement (16-25 hours per week) to progress this plan.
Is your organisation looking to explore your net zero opportunities; adopt circular economy principles; or work towards your decarbonisation ambitions? Step Up to Net Zero can help.
