+ About Us

We were born from the coming together of like-minded professionals that believed we needed to accelerate sustainable development and respond to the socio-economic and environmental pressures that are demanding greater accountability and transparency from businesses and investors.

However, we felt that the focus was often skewed toward the environmental, social and governance or ESG risks a business may face, and not the actual impact they have on the environment and societies in which they operate. We believe that ESG risk together with SDG impact will better determine a company’s legitimacy and license to operate; and so set out innovate.

Paragon + Impact technology was established to address these limitations of traditional ESG ratings and improve how the tangible impact is measured and rated.

Through this approach, and our resulting sustainability and impact technology and advisory services. we hope to enable informed decisions that focus foremost on the sustainability of our planet and its people, alongside sustainable economic growth.

+ Our Values

We are dedicated to upholding these core values that shape our interactions with both our team members and partners.
