Empowering SMEs on Their Sustainability Journey

To support small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in driving sustainability and achieving lasting growth, our platform offers tailored tools and insights designed for real-world impact.

Take The Assessment

Ignite your sustainability journey

Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SME) are critical drivers of job creation, poverty reduction and sustainable economic growth. Making up 90% of businesses, accounting for 50% of total employment worldwide, and generating nearly 40% of GDP in emerging economies, SMEs are key drivers of global sustainability progress and inclusive growth.

But we also know that SMEs sometimes face unique challenges on their sustainability journey, such as access to financing, vulnerabilities to inflation, or problems navigating complex regulatory environments.
