The VIBES Scottish Environment Business Awards recognised the innovative and sustainable practices of businesses at its 25th anniversary event, held this week.
Led by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA), the ceremony in Glasgow highlighted the innovative approaches of businesses that are taking action to create a sustainable, low-carbon future.
This year, winners highlighted leading work in nature-based solutions, energy transitions, circular economy models, and sustainable transport initiatives proving that “what’s good for the environment is also good for business”.
SEPA Chair, Lisa Tennant, who headed up the judging panel this year and expressed her pride at SEPA’s leadership of the awards said:
“For 25 years SEPA have led the VIBES Awards to recognise sustainable practices and environmental innovation that sets the bar for business.
“The work of VIBES stretches across the year and the community of winners we have act as a catalyst of change. Their stories of environmental leadership, innovation and sustainable working practices inspire others by showing environmental excellence can go hand in hand with business success.”
