The Surpluss becomes first Race to Zero Accelerator in the GCC
One of only 29 global organisations around the world designated with this distinction
What is RTZ?
Race to Zero is a global campaign rallying non-state actors – including companies, cities, regions, financial, educational, and healthcare institutions – to take rigorous and immediate action to halve global emissions by 2030 and deliver a healthier, fairer, net zero world.
Who is this for?
Our commitment is to provide SMEs from micro to large businesses the opportunity to understand and commit to their net zero transition.
Why is it important?
Practically every country has joined the Paris Agreement on climate change, which means each country is mandated in the form of reporting to provide proof of progress of the transition to net zero. That only means that each country is going to mandate policies and structures to received the reporting from the private sector.
The Surpluss is here to make this journey and process much easier to understand and implement through your daily operation.
Let us tell you how!

Rana Hajirasouli, Founder of The Surpluss, highlights, “We are incredibly honoured to be given such a distinction, and whole heartedly believe our mandate of radical collaboration being a necessary pre-requisite for accomplishing the most pressing challenges of our time.”
She adds, “The challenges that SMEs face are inextricably linked to their survival. Despite making up more than 90 per cent of the global economy, they are still often found short of resources that suit their requirements. We want to ensure that they are included, feel visible, and hope to demonstrate there is a real commercial case of building a climate-resilient business beyond just pledges.”
