About Allplants

The Allplants team is obsessed with the power of plants and how eating them can help transform our planet. They believe that millions of us trying to change how we eat is better than a handful of people being perfectly sustainable. They also believe that creating happy communities and healthy ecosystems starts on our plate, but doesn’t stop there, which is why they choose to pursue their mission in a way that’s both planet-kind and human-kind.

They achieved B Corp Certification in 2018 to verify these efforts and join a growing movement of B Corporations using the power of business to solve social and environmental problems. By 2021, they had a score of Outstanding and are one of only a handful of B Corps to have achieved this.

About Olio

Olio connects neighbours with each other and with local businesses so that surplus food can be shared, rather than thrown away.

Between a third and a half of all food produced globally is never eaten. The value of this wasted food is worth more than $1 trillion. To put that in perspective, in the US, food waste represents 1.3% of the total GDP.

This could be food nearing its sell-by date in local stores, spare home-grown vegetables, bread from your baker, or the groceries in your fridge when you go away.

Thanks to Olio, millions of neighbours all over the world are using the app to share more, care more and waste less.

They’re giving and getting free stuff and borrowing and lending household items – all directly from their areas.

The Olio team believes that small actions can lead to big change. Collectively – one rescued cupcake, carrot or bottle of lotion at a time – the Olio community is building a more sustainable future where our most precious resources are shared, not thrown away.

About Orbex

Orbex is finding ways to put tech into orbit more cheaply and more sustainably. The team uses the latest 3D printing techniques to build components quickly and cheaply for their rockets.

The company has developed one of the most advanced, low-carbon, high-performance micro-launch vehicles in the world, Orbex Prime.

It offers a flexible core launch service and a suite of supporting services to make life easier for customers. Its advanced launch vehicle means higher reliability, more flexible mission profile types and a regular, scheduled launch service.

The market for small launch services is large but there was no dedicated micro-launch facility in Europe. The combination of demand, limited supply and Orbex’s market-leading position has enabled them to agree contracts for their first 25 launches, just five years after the company’s formation.

Space these days has become the provision of billionaires but Orbex represents a new breed. Its progress towards achieving sustainable space travel will have positive repercussions over generations.

About depop

Depop offers an alternative option to big retailers, giving customers the chance to curate their wardrobes sustainably.
