What our clients say about Green Economy:
“The fully-funded support we have received from Green Economy has been invaluable. Being able to tap into their knowledge and connections means that we’ve made a huge leap forward with our growth plans this year.”
Fiona Conor, Managing Director, Trust Electric Heating
"Being a member of Green Economy is a great way of identifying sales opportunities to grow your business. The Marketplace allows us to gain access to a host of business growth benefits, including a personal profile for buyers to directly enquire about our services."
Gary Brandwood, Managing Director, Perfect Sense Energy
“Far from a ‘one size fits all’ approach, the conversations and activities focus on our objectives, and their flexibility of the approach has been extremely helpful in getting tailored and targeted support.
"There is no doubt that the net zero feature within our King’s Award application was stronger because of the support we received, and therefore our thanks go to the Green Economy team for this.”
Brett Mendell, Director, Thomas Kneale
