Explore the future of sustainable tools

Download our comprehensive guide featuring over 50 sustainability technology providers, facilitating informed decisions for your organization.

What is the H&Z Sustainability Tech Landscape?

The Sustainability Tech Landscape presents over 50 technology providers across four distinct categories, providing insights into leading and emergent solutions. It serves as our curated perspective, aimed at assisting organizations in exploring sustainability innovations, while also mapping out trends and focal points within the rapidly expanding sustainability tech sector. It underscores the sector’s swift growth and its burgeoning impact on sustainability efforts. 

We support our clients in their sustainability tool selection for many years now. This three-step process starts with a short list of tools deduced from the H&Z Sustainability Tech Landscape. Based on our client’s needs, we then organize tool demo sessions which is the base for a deeper understanding of the respective sustainability tool. Finally, we guide the decision process making sure that the right tool is chosen by our clients with head, heard and hand.

The map illustrates four categories. Although many tools would fit into more than one, in essence, they all have one focal point: Circular Economy, Decarbonization, Compliance & Reporting, and Supply Chain Risk Management.

Supporting the transition towards a circular economy, aiming to help organizations develop circular value chains utilizing blockchain technology, AI, and supplier networks. 

DECARBONIZATION 

Tracking carbon emissions and delivering critical insights for a decarbonization pathway through forecasting, data aggregation, and data management. 

COMPLIANCE & REPORTING

Solving the current sustainability compliance and reporting challenges such as the CSRD, LkSG/CSDDD and more, resulting from data aggregation and data management.
