BNP Paribas
Net Zero’s headline partner
BNP Paribas is one of the world’s pre-eminent banking groups, and Tech Nation is lucky enough to have them as our headline partner for our Net Zero programme. Headquartered in Europe, they are active globally and have a major presence in the UK and are a world leader in sustainable finance.

Why BNP Paribas is our ideal partner
BNP Paribas UK is supporting Net Zero as a part of their wider mission to contribute to a responsible and sustainable economy, providing clients financing and advisory services according to the highest ethical standards and in line with the UN SDGs. They offer secure and innovative financial solutions to individuals, corporates and institutions, including support for the energy transition and cleantech startups, while striving to address the big challenges of today. And there are no bigger challenges today than the environment, local development and social inclusion. They are the bank for a changing world.
“Supporting Net Zero in the UK requires collective mobilisation, and clean tech solutions are a vital part of accelerating the energy transition. As a bank supporting the transition to a low carbon economy, we have a responsibility to connect our ecosystem of clients and the innovative start-ups at the forefront of developing technologies that tackle environmental challenges. This partnership with Tech Nation highlights the power of coalitions that is essential to scaling up climate action and creating a fairer, greener and more resilient world”.
