Gavin Tweedie
With Scotland’s ambitious 2045 Net Zero Targets, the challenge remains for the public sector in identifying how to gather the necessary carbon data in order to accurately measure Scotland’s carbon reduction journey. Gavin Tweedie is the co-founder and chairman of the social enterprise Net Zero Nation Ltd and Scottish Net Zero community which he helped establish in January 2021 with the Scottish Business Network and James Napier at CBN Expert. The organisation has grown to over 1000 members and mobilised over 1bn in annual revenues to sign up to the UN Race to Zero. They have created a Net Zero Accelerator programme to mobilise action and helped the members to form new partnerships and relationships, influencing a change in the mindset around Net Zero and Sustainable decision making.
Gavin helps and supports entrepreneurs and organisations who prioritise people, planet, profit with a portfolio of work converging around Net Zero, Sustainability and Circular Economy. He works with the Fuel Change organisation helping support apprentices and companies transform their ideas for low carbon solutions into new products and solutions, creating green jobs and companies in Scotland.
