Sustainability solutions are increasingly moving from the superficial to the foundational.
That’s the view of Lubomila Jordanova, co-founder of the GreenTech Alliance and a judge for our EnviroTech 50 rankings.
Jordanova, who is also group CEO of Nasdaq-listed Diginex – a Swiss firm unifying carbon accountability, ESG regulatory reporting, human rights due diligence, supply chain risk, worker voice, and ESG investor intelligence – highlights the ‘remarkable’ shift after assessing this year’s cohort.
“We have transitioned from the conceptual phase of sustainability into an era defined by DeepTech execution and rigorous engineering,” she tells BusinessCloud.
“Historically, reporting software and superficial solutions for the beginning of sustainability implementation [dominated industry rankings].
“There has been a remarkable shift towards foundational infrastructure this year.”
In the video below, she also hails the commercial readiness of the EnviroTech 50 innovators as we “move away from passive carbon accounting towards active hard decarbonisation”.
