A Brief Overview of the Sustainability Report

Why a sustainability report creates business value and how to do it

Climate and sustainability are key competitive factors and important drivers for gaining and retaining customers, capital, and talent—drivers that are rapidly accelerating. Therefore, companies need to be able to profile themselves on sustainability. With a sustainability report, you can show the world and your stakeholders that you take sustainability seriously.

On the platform, you can create Valified's ImpactReport, which can be integrated with your annual report or produced as a standalone document. This is typically an expensive task when outsourced to external consultants, but now you can shape and draft it yourself using an intuitive tool that ensures a professional layout.

Valified makes it easy to create sustainability reports

With the help of Valified's platform, we make it easy to create sustainability reports that can be used for customers and tenders, as well as for dialogue with all types of stakeholders. Our sustainability report uses the key figures for sustainability recommended by FSR - Danish Auditors.
