We're Excited to Announce The Crown Estate as a Sponsor of Blue Earth Summit 2024!

The Crown Estate

We’re proud to welcome The Crown Estate to Blue Earth Summit this year, a partnership that brings together two organisations committed to creating lasting impact for people and the planet. The Crown Estate, with its diverse £16 billion portfolio spanning rural land, urban centres, and the seabed around England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, plays a pivotal role in the UK’s environmental and economic landscape.

From its significant role in unlocking renewable energy, with 36 offshore wind farms that could power 11m homes to contributing a £10m fund to support farmers with “no regrets moves” such as tree and hedgerow planting, The Crown Estate’s work is deeply aligned with Blue Earth’s mission to drive sustainable solutions for a more regenerative future. Their commitment to the nation’s environmental, social, and financial health makes them the perfect partner as we work together to foster positive change.

Will Hayler, Co-Founder and CEO at Blue Earth shared his thoughts:

“We are delighted to welcome The Crown Estate as a sponsor of Blue Earth Summit. We look forward to highlighting the impactful work they are doing at scale, both on land and at sea. By working across the public, private, and third sectors, The Crown Estate is leading the way as an organisation finding better solutions for both people and planet.”

Anna Swaithes, Head of Sustainability – Purpose, Sustainability & Stakeholder at The Crown Estate, added:

“Sustainability challenges require a joined-up approach. Blue Earth Summit brings together leading voices and diverse perspectives, helping to connect businesses to solutions in a positive and dynamic way.”

By joining forces, we aim to amplify the conversation on how businesses can act in the national interest—both today and for future generations. The Crown Estate’s leadership across renewable energy, biodiversity, and sustainable development is a prime example of how organisations can use their power and influence for the greater good.

As we gather changemakers at the Summit this October, The Crown Estate will be central to discussions on how to create a more resilient, sustainable, and inclusive future. Together, we’re excited to explore new opportunities for impact and inspire the next wave of leaders dedicated to safeguarding our planet.
