An amazing 2023 - thank you to all of our partners & clients, it’s been an absolute pleasure to work with you! Now here’s to a big 2024! ♻️ #GreenTech
Founder @ GreenTech | Driving Sustainable Procurement | Helping Organisations transition their entire office into a Sustainable Workspace
And that’s a wrap for 2023! To be perfectly honest, I’ve been really thinking about what to write on this post as I recap on what has been without a doubt the most challenging yet rewarding year of my life. In January I embarked on the journey of going on my own & founding GreenTech and what an experience it has been. Being a Founder, I’ve found that days can be very lonely, extremely stressful & a real rollercoaster of a journey, going from a comfortable monthly wage to diving into the deep end and building something entirely from scratch. These past 12 months have certainly given me some real highs, coupled with some real lows, but when you look back and see what you’ve achieved in such a short space of time, it’s nice to see how far you’ve come. What I can almost definitely say is that I’ve met some of the most incredible people and have had the opportunity to work & onboard with a huge variety of organisations, as well as rub shoulders with the largest insurance company in the world. A few other key highlights from 2023: 💻 Building our sustainable product portfolio from just 12 items to over 145 ♻️ Helping 10+ organisations transition their entire office into a sustainable workspace 🎤 Pitched live at multiple events 🤝 Attended over 35 sustainability/networking events 🏭 Saved over 158,000kg of CO2 emissions 📱 Generated 0% E-Waste through our processes Away from work, the biggest highlight was certainly running the London Marathon & raising over £2.5k for Children with Cancer - an experience I will never forget 🏃🏻 It’s been a year of learning, adapting, overcoming & striding forward & here is to a big 2024! A huge huge thank you to: Jenny Jane Haynes Stephen Haskew Gareth Banks Elizabeth Corse Juliette Devillard Satyen Fakey Leo Lightfoot Max Lightfoot-Brown Lightfoot Agency Victoria Chater-Lea Alexander Lewis-Jones Mary Cole Cláudia Ghartey Johanna Andersson And of course to our amazing clients who we get to work with day in and day out. 2024 is one I’m extremely looking forward to, with so much planned & so many projects to kickstart - our most exciting being “Bridging the Technology Divide” which I can’t wait to get stuck into (more info to follow soon). We set on a mission 12 months ago to make a positive impact, even if that meant impacting just one organisation & shifting their mindset when it comes to procurement. In an industry which is so stubbornly linear (thanks again Gareth Banks) I can really say we are driving a decarbonised future & encouraging circularity as much as we possibly can. #GreenTech
