Business Declares is a not-for-profit organisation, formed by senior leaders, with a vast range of experience from the SME, B Corp and FTSE100 sectors. Our purpose is to inspire, encourage and accelerate action within the business community to address the climate, ecological and social emergency - the polycrisis.

Business Declares has a network of around 140 business members across multiple industries, sizes and portfolios, who commit to the ethos and sentiment of our Manifesto by: formally recognising and openly speaking out about the polycrisis and recognising its social and systemic components; articulating a plan and act to restore climate, nature and social justice; and advocating for regulatory and systemic change.

Business Declares supports its members through offering best practice and practical solutions; introducing emerging/provocative issues to prepare organisations for the future; and amplifying our Manifesto and the voices of like-minded businesses/networks, through campaigning and advocacy.

Our ethos focuses on being a critical friend to the business community. We are straight talking and, at times, provocative and challenging, but within a safe space which is authentic, collaborative and non-judgemental. To find out more, please read our Manifesto.
