UK Green Business Awards 2026: Last chance to enter

Final deadline for entries to this year's awards falls at midnight on the 6th March

There is just a little over 24 hours left to submit an entry for the UK Green Business Awards 2026 ahead of Friday's deadline. 

The original deadline for entries to this year's awards was extended by a week in response to popular demand, but the final deadline will now fall at midnight on Friday 6th March.

Entries can be submitted through the awards website and any organisation or individual that has already made a submission ahead of the original deadline and wishes to update it ahead of the new deadline can do so.   

The full list of finalists for this year's awards will then be announced later this month, ahead of the shortlist being considered by the awards' expert judging panel.  

The flagship awards - which are now in the their fourth year and act as the successor to the BusinessGreen Leaders Awards that first launched in 2010 - are expected to bring together over 600 senior figures from across the UK's green economy, providing a unique opportunity to network with colleagues and showcase the many achievements of leading green businesses. 

The glittering awards ceremony and gala dinner will take place at the Brewery in Central London on the evening of Wednesday 24th June, forming part of London Climate Action Week.

Companies and individuals considering submitting an entry to the awards have a wide range of categories to consider, including consultancy of the year, fast track company of the year, ESG investor of the year, innovation of the year, small business of the year, and the coveted company of the year.

Companies, projects, and individuals looking for advice on what makes a strong entry can check out BusinessGreen's recent guide and webinar, where judges offered their tips on what they are looking for in a submission.

This year's UK Green Business Awards are delivered with support from our sponsors Osborne ClarkeRadley Yeldar, and Reset Connect, as well as partners London Climate Action Week and the Great Big Green Week.

You can check out further details on sponsorship opportunities for the UK Green Business Awards and Women in Green Business Awards 2026, which will take place this autumn, through the awards website.
