XI GRACE Academy Edition

Companies are active agents in achieving sustainability, regardless of their size and sector of activity. It is therefore up to them to manage their contribution, both from the point of view of external demands and from the point of view of internal adjustments to meet those demands.

In its approach to sustainability, it is up to the SME:

Identify the sustainability issues where the company has the most impact (material, financial and non-financial issues).
Articulate a common path to sustainability with its key stakeholders (suppliers, major clients, financial services).
