London, 02 June 2025 – Sustainability Magazine and BizClik Media has announced that entries for the Global Sustainability Awards close on 29th June, with less than four weeks remaining for organisations to submit their applications.
The awards ceremony will take place on 8th September in London, bringing together sustainability leaders from across the globe to celebrate excellence in environmental and social impact. Companies of all sizes are encouraged to enter across six dedicated categories that recognise measurable progress, innovative solutions, and transformative leadership in sustainability.
The Global Sustainability Awards provide a platform for organisations to showcase their commitment to creating lasting positive change. With categories spanning enterprise leadership, environmental impact, and nature-based solutions, the awards celebrate businesses and projects that are driving the sustainability agenda forward. Entries are assessed by a distinguished panel of Chief Sustainability Officers and senior leaders from global organisations including Google, Merck, RELX, Schneider Electric, and the BBC.
Categories Open to Companies
Six categories are available for company entries, recognising achievements across different scales and focus areas. The Enterprise of the year (1,000+) category celebrates large organisations demonstrating exceptional leadership in sustainability across operations, culture, and strategy. The Company of the year (<1000) honours smaller businesses delivering innovative and scalable sustainability initiatives that balance growth with environmental and social stewardship.
The Transformation project of the year recognises projects completed within the last three years that have transformed sustainability performance through measurable results. The Environmental impact award honours organisations that have delivered measurable improvements to the natural environment, including emissions reduction, waste minimisation, and ecosystem restoration. The Tech & AI award celebrates the innovative use of technology and gen AI to advance sustainability goals, whilst the Nature-based solutions award recognises projects that harness the power of nature to address environmental and societal challenges.
Expert Judging Panel
The awards are judged by 16 senior sustainability leaders from major global organisations. The panel includes Cara Williams, Chief Sustainability Officer at Mercer; Adam Elman, Director of Sustainability – EMEA at Google; Dr. Márcia Balisciano, Chief Sustainability Officer at RELX; Sorouch Kheradmand, Global Head of Sustainability at Schneider Electric; and Danielle Mulder, Chief Sustainability Officer at the BBC. Additional judges include representatives from HubSpot, Suntory Beverage & Food, Molson Coors Brewing, Currys, and Fifth Third Bank.
Adam Elman from Google commented on his role as a judge: "I joined the judging panel because these awards are more than a ceremony; they are a vital platform for shared learning. To build a truly resilient future, we need innovative solutions across the entire spectrum of environmental and social challenges. I am looking for entries that not only show impact, but inspire others by proving what is possible. For me, a standout submission is one that offers a blueprint for others to follow, demonstrating that through radical collaboration and systemic thinking, we can deliver the change the world needs right now."
