Come and find your fellow participants alongside the Future Ready team at Innovate UK’s Annual Event 2025 for an hour of discussion and networking around the Big Ideas. Speak to representatives about their Net Zero Living project journeys and visit our 10 Big Ideas stations:

- Making net zero business as usual
- Build local authority capacity to deliver
- Ensure a citizen-centred and just transition
- Strengthen political and institutional leadership
- Data platforms: from carbon counting to system strategy
- Grow the net-zero workforce
- Develop investable pipelines, not just projects
- Partner beyond the public sector to drive innovation
- Working at scale / scale what works
- Accelerate delivery in high-impact sectors
