VIBES Awards

What are the VIBES Awards?

Businesses in Scotland are taking significant steps to improve or reduce their impact on the environment, often saving money in the process. The VIBES Awards are held each year to recognise and showcase best practice.

The VIBES Awards are a partnership between Scottish Environment Protection Agency, Scottish Government, Scottish Water, Scottish Enterprise, Highland and Islands Enterprise, Zero Waste Scotland, and Energy Saving Trust.

VIBES is further supported by CBI Scotland, the Institute of Directors, Federation of Small Businesses, Bright Green Business, Quality Scotland and S

The awards aim to encourage the efficient use of resources, enhance the competitiveness of businesses, improve environmental performance and support the wider goals of sustainable development including social benefits through community and staff involvement.

The VIBES Awards are given a high profile ceremony at the end of the year, providing a valuable opportunity to have the success of your business widely recognised. The awards are RSA accredited, which means that winners are considered for the prestigious European Business Awards for the Environment (EBAE) that are held every two years.

The EBAE Awards play a crucial role in demonstrating progress on environmental and sustainability issues worldwide.
