Icebreaker One is a not-for-profit collaborative initiative. Our work is both informed by, and supported by the project partners, Members, and Strategic Partners who make up our Constellation.

Our Constellation is formed into five Clusters, bringing together individuals and organisations working in different industries. Through this we help to share knowledge and break down the silos that add friction to the drive towards net-zero, and ensure that the work we and others are doing are driven by user need.

To help these organisations join Icebreaker One, we offer bilateral agreements which forms the basis of our Strategic Partnerships.
