Entry deadline for the UK's most prestigious green business awards is Thursday 31st March

The UK's leading green businesses, NGOs, sustainability executives, investors, project managers, and entrepreneurs have just three days left to submit their entry for the BusinessGreen Leaders Awards 2016 - the UK's largest and most prestigious sustainable business awards.

The extended deadline for the awards is 5pm on Thursday 31st March.

Now in their sixth year, the BusinessGreen Leaders Awards bring together around 600 business leaders, politicians, entrepreneurs and investors from across the green economy each year at our glittering awards ceremony.

Previous winners include IKEA, Lord Stuart Rose, National Trust, Sir Ian Cheshire, Gooid Energy, and Bupa.

Entry to the awards is free, however, all shortlisted organisations are expected to purchase a minimum of two tickets to the awards ceremony.

The shortlist will then be announced on Monday April 11th and successful applicants will have until June 7th to confirm their attendance at the awards on July 6th, when around 600 executives from across the green economy will gather with investors and policymakers at The Brewery in the City of London for the glittering BusinessGreen Leaders Awards ceremony.

In addition to a three course meal and unique networking opportunity, all finalists and highly commended entries will receive a certificate to mark their achievement at the BusinessGreen Leaders Awards.

The theme of this year's awards is making the Paris Agreement a reality, and as such we want to hear from those businesses, NGOs, and executives who are working to turn global sustainability pledges, be they on climate change or other topics, into an economic and commercially-viable proposition.
