As a purpose-driven company in the sustainable sport sector, it is our responsibility to uplift new sustainability leaders and to leverage our expertise to make a positive impact in our local community and beyond. For this reason, Enovation Consulting is re-launching its “Thursdays for the Future” initiative, which ran previously from 2021 to 2023.
On the last Thursday of each month, we will host virtual "drop-in Q&A sessions” for stakeholders, students, and communities interested in chatting about sustainability in sport. These sessions will be exclusively online, and our experts will be available to chat during pre-bookable slots. The first sessions will be held on the 27th of MARCH 2025.
The Enovation Consulting team consists of 12 professionals with diverse backgrounds: From climate science, sustainability, and sports media to Formula 1, engineering, and education, we’ve got your questions covered!
Who can attend? Everyone!
Perhaps you are writing your dissertation on sustainability in motorsport and want to interview industry professionals, or you have a great idea for a final assignment on improving the sustainability of sporting events.
Maybe you are interested in finding out about sporting and sustainability related career opportunities and the unique journeys our team has taken to get where they are. We have several staff who have done mid-career pivots, as well as staff who studied sustainability in school! No matter where you are in your sport and sustainability journey, we welcome your questions and can’t wait to chat.

Why “Thursdays for the Future” and why now?
The UNFCCC Paris Agreement’s goal is to hold “the increase in the global average temperatures to well below 2°C and pursue efforts to limit temperature increase to 1.5°C.” 2024 was both the warmest year on record and the first year in which recorded average global temperatures rose more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels . For Enovation Consulting, this news meant 2025 must be a year of action.
Centering action in 2025:
Sustainability asks us to provide future generations with the ability to meet their own needs. However, 3 in 5 young people don’t think their voices are being heard on climate change, and other generations increasingly want to be a part of the solution, but they aren’t sure where to start.
You can start with sport!
According to the Sport Industry Report 2025, 80% of sports fans and 96% of sport professionals agree that sport can have huge influence over behaviors and attitudes surrounding complex issues like climate change and social justice.
The next generation of sustainability leaders and climate-curious folks of all ages deserve a seat at the table. Sport is all about action and community. And sustainability and climate issues are, too. We look forward to seeing you on the last Thursday of each month (with a small break in the summer)!
