Small Business Britain, in partnership with BT, is launching the Green Growth Awards and Green Growth 100. The initiative will champion 100 forward-thinking small businesses that are successfully using sustainability to grow.

From cutting waste and saving energy to rethinking supply chains and attracting new customers, these businesses are showing that sustainability isn’t just good for the planet, it’s good for business too. The Green Growth 100 will champion these entrepreneurs, share their stories, and inspire more small businesses to take action on sustainability while driving profitability.

All selected businesses will be invited to an awards event in March 2026, hosted by BT. The event will bring together entrepreneurs, industry leaders and sustainability champions, and two standout firms will each receive a Green Growth Award – a £5,000 grant to help them scale their sustainability goals. Runner-up non-cash prizes will also be awarded on the day.

Applications are open and available here. The deadline for submitting entries is 9 January 2026.
