The Ecology Foundation

Are you looking for an opportunity to develop your skills in the emerging technologies and business opportunities that are coming about as business prepares and changes for a carbon-constrained world? New ways to source energy. New technolgies. New business models.

This is the work of The Ecology Foundation every day. We are working with business to help make the adjustment to new ways of doing things; and to doing new things. We conceive the ideas; we develop the business plans; we create the partnerships and consortiums that can bring them to life.

Do you want to be a part of this? Do you see yourself as one of Ireland's leaders in this drive to a new way of doing things? Do you want to learn how to become one of these leaders. Do you want to be given the opportunity to lead one of these projects?

If this is you, then you need to talk to us. Now!

To have a chat with our team, then send us an email telling us about yourself, what you've done so far and why you think that you have the potential to lead one of our projects.

Together – we CAN make the difference!

At The Ecology Foundation, we understand the difficulties SMEs have in keeping up with the climate debate and understanding the impact that climate change will have on their business. We also realise the financial and time restraints these companies are under. Therefore, we devised Club 500™ with their particular issues in mind. Club 500™ is a way for SMEs to educate themselves about climate change, strategise how it will impact their business and develop initiatives to reduce that impact, as well as to network with other like-minded companies to give their sector a voice in the climate debate. We work with business to become more accountable for their climate emissions and to commit to reducing that impact. By participating in Club 500™, SMEs will not miss out on the opportunity to drive innovation and participate in the action.
