GreenTech Gathering
Our route into GreenTech & Sustainability was the development of our own ‘Website Sustainability Auditing’ tool. The purpose of the tool is to help companies understand the estimated amount of carbon their websites and digital services emit per page request. There’s a common misconception that as websites are hosted in the ‘cloud’ there isn't much impact.
Unfortunately, this is not the case.
The IT and Communications industry as a whole creates more greenhouse gas emissions than the aviation industry every single year. This is the problem our idea is aiming to solve.
Off the back of developing our ‘Website Sustainability Auditing’ tool, we also started GreenTech Gathering - A relaxed and informal networking event series for individuals and organisations interested in sustainability to connect in person and expand their networking in the North. Each event receives 70 - 120 business professionals all focused on making the world a better place through their businesses.
