Courageous leaders we’ve supported on the path to positive impact
Are you unlocking the true potential of sustainability—or is it still an untapped opportunity?
Sustainability is no longer optional. The world demands action, yet knowing where to begin isn't always clear. Turning sustainability into a strategic driver means embracing new challenges, managing risks effectively, and navigating complexity to make impactful decisions.
Sustainability as a strategic advantage needs clear focus
Meeting regulations is just the start.
The real challenge is to make sustainability a source of value—driving practical, measurable decisions that benefit the business.
Inaction carries real risk
Businesses that neglect sustainability face growing financial, regulatory, and reputational risks.
(Quote from Paul Polman on risk)
Stakeholder expectations are rising
ESG criteria are increasingly influencing investment, purchasing, and reputation.
It’s no longer enough to talk about purpose—today, impact must be demonstrated through data, consistency, and transparency.

IT and Travel & Tourism
Amadeus, a leading international technology company in the travel and tourism sector, set out to strengthen its social sustainability plan. The aim was to maximise its positive contribution to the travel and tourism ecosystem by identifying opportunities for impact that align with both the company’s operations and its corporate strategy.
This work resulted in the design and implementation of priority initiatives in the field of social sustainability, directly connected to Amadeus’ business and operations.
Among these initiatives are an impact engagement framework for local communities and social impact innovation programmes aimed at SMEs.

Agri - Food Industry
Ebro Group, the world’s leading rice company with a strong international presence in the premium dry and fresh pasta markets, set out to measure its carbon footprint as the foundation for developing a decarbonisation plan aligned with the environmental commitments set out in its sustainability strategy.
Given that land-use related sectors account for more than 20% of global emissions, the company aimed to address growing regulatory pressure as well as the increasing demands of its customers.
From Double Materiality to Action
Air Transportation
International Airlines Group (IAG), one of the world’s largest airline groups, sought to meet the regulatory requirements of the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) by carrying out a double materiality assessment. The project was recently highlighted in IAG’s 2024 Annual Report.
This initiative required the integration of impacts, risks, and opportunities across all of its companies, including leading European airlines such as British Airways, Iberia, Aer Lingus, Vueling, and Level, as well as IAG Loyalty, IAG Cargo, and IAG Global Business Services (IAG GBS).
