Assessing and measuring impact can be complex and expensive, but Vested Impact is here to help.
No matter the size of your business, we make it quick, easy and affordable for you to assess the impact of your products and services on the world around you. With just a little information about what you do, where you do it, and the scale of your operations, we can provide you with a detailed report on how your products impact global priorities like climate, education, healthcare, and the economy.
Our reports can help you attract customers who care about impact, and can help you do business with companies, vendors, and financiers who require impact reporting from their supply chain or portfolio companies. And, for companies in the EU, we can help meet the growing regulatory pressure to report impact. New regulations in 2024 require companies with more than 250 employees to understand, report and monitor their impact. These companies’ are increasingly asking the SMEs in their supply chain to report their impact to them in order to do business, and Vested Impact can meet that demand.
