In the last article we explored the difficult situation of climate change underway. A problem that has always pushed us to implement our solutions, in order to promote sustainable collaboration. That’s why we are very happy to have taken part in Sustainability Waves, the Cariplo Factory report on companies committed to sustainable innovation.
Sustainability Waves aims to collect the testimonies and innovations of Italian startups and companies at the forefront of promoting sustainability. The report followed the ESG criteria, i.e. Environmental, Social, Governance.
Evaluation based on Environmental values takes into account the company’s direct impact on the environment, Social values take into account the social impact, while Governance values refer to the ethical principles that guide company management.
Sustainability Waves therefore also aims to share those ethical principles and innovations that contribute to making companies eco-friendly, so that they can encourage the dissemination of preventive measures to combat pollution and the consequent climate change in many other companies.
What were the findings of the report, then?
