Now in its second year, Scale Up is accepting early applications from businesses and nonprofits seeking to develop the knowledge and skills to implement a sustainability project that reduces their impact, benefits their community, and gets them recognized for building a vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable economy in Arizona. Scale Up is a 7 week cohort-based workshop series that offers the unique opportunity for businesses to go from education and collaboration to planning, benchmarking, financing, and implementation - all in one accessible package. Since the start of the program at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, 46 Arizona businesses and nonprofits have since launched various projects addressing energy, water, waste, transportation, developing a culture of sustainability, diversity, equity, inclusion, and more with ongoing support from the Local First Arizona Sustainability Team.
Space in each Scale Up cohort is limited to provide a personalized and deeply collaborative experience for participating businesses. Click here or email Nick Shivka directly at nick@localfirstaz.com to apply or learn more today!
