AP Projects is bringing expertise in project and technology implementations across supply chains, supply chain management and cross- industry knowledge into the team, as well as ESG standards and SDG compliance strategies. We are working with you on business models, which balance economy, ecology and society. This means a for-profit corporate entity can include a positive impact on society and environment in their business strategy. Set goals in reporting can be reached together with multiple partners of the sector, such as ESG reporting and material exchange platforms. The creation of disruptive sustainable (fashion) business models and cost-benefit analysis is necessary to identify the needs and possibilities of your company. *Business but sustainable* Two key points here are the competitiveness through enterprise sustainability and attraction of impact investment capital: ! Positive impacts bring long-term financial value (companies with the highest ESG ratings outperformed the lowest-rated firms by as much as 40%). ! Asset owners such as pension funds are increasingly demanding sustainable investing strategies. Legal compliance and following regulatory guidelines is not enough for many investors. They are looking for best practices and pro-active attitudes towards ESG reporting and SDG compliance. Non-financial factors can affect the value of your company and even become indirect financial factors. Sustainability can be a driver of competitiveness, given that the market for sustainable products and services is growing fast (“green” branding). This pushes a company’s reputation and can lead to more sales and a higher revenue. Eco-efficiency can save money by energy cost savings or a lower employee turn-over which leads to higher employee performance. Companies with a leading action on climate change have financially outperformed the global benchmark by 6%.
