UKGBC has an expanding community of Innovative Start-Up Members, who we bring together through this Forum to:

Create a supportive community of peers to explore challenges they share and the potential solutions to them.
Connect Innovative Start-Up members with the wider UKGBC corporate membership, facilitating knowledge sharing and network-building.
Proactively engage start-ups in UKGBC activities.

The Forum is a collaborative and informal space, with meetings held on a quarterly basis open to all UKGBC Innovative Start-Up members. Our July meeting will be face-to-face with our members who are investing in sustainability start-ups for the built environment. The session will be networking focused, but will also look at how different investors analyse and prioritise potential investments and their process for making investment decisions.

We will be welcoming the following investors to this session: JLL Spark, Reach UK, 2150, Green Angel Syndicate, PropTech1, Grosvenor, Sustainable Ventures, Ebico Trust, Pi Labs and A/O PropTech.
