With regulators, stakeholders, and consumers demanding more impactful and sustainable business practices, companies are facing increasing pressure to measure, report, and improve their sustainability and ESG performance. Plus, Pulsora has built a comprehensive platform that gives today’s leading organizations a centralized system to manage their sustainability business processes—from data collection and disclosures to audit logging and analytics.
With the new funding round, Pulsora aims to bolster its enterprise sustainability management platform further, expanding functionalities like carbon accounting and gearing up for forthcoming regulations to ensure businesses maintain a proactive approach to their sustainability efforts. And in the context of a $12 billion sustainability management market that is still in its infancy, Pulsora is considered a transformative tool, helping companies streamline and simplify increasingly complex sustainability management operations, from private capital firms looking to improve their portfolios’ ESG performance to large enterprises seeking to centralize sustainability metrics from across their value chains.
This new funding round comes on the heels of Pulsora’s rapid customer adoption since its 2021 inception. And now over 400 corporations worldwide trust Pulsora to help them adapt to an ever-evolving sustainability landscape, including leaders such as Apax Partners, Aker ASA, Aligned Climate Capital, Clayton Dubilier & Rice, and Cornerstone Building Brands.
