Green Growth Programme

Green Growth: Made in Britain

THE UK government has mandated that every UK business must reach net-zero by 2050 or before. That’s why Made in Britain is here to support every UK manufacturer to advance their progress on sustainability. 

Made in Britain’s Green Growth Assessment provides your business with a benchmark, so you can understand the progress your business is making in sustainability. 

Created in partnership with the Cambridge Judge Business School, it has been designed exclusively for Made in Britain members and is the gateway to the Green Growth Programme.
