The Imperial Sustainability Alumni Network launched in June 2025. The goals of the network are:
- To cultivate collaboration between alumni, industry leaders and Imperial academics in the fields of sustainability, climate and green energy.
- To unite alumni professionals interested or working in sustainability, to share knowledge and expertise.
- To support Imperial’s commitment in the sustainability sector and related initiatives.
The Network is led by its committee of alumni volunteers, who are working to develop a programme of activity that will support professional development, lifelong learning and networking opportunities for alumni. The new alumni network launches alongside Imperial’s new Schools of Convergence Science: School of Sustainability.
