About Vivek Anand

It\'s very simple:\"No business is truly sustainable unless it sustains both the planet and its people.\" This mantra inspires my work every day—motivating me to harness technology, AI, and data so that organizations can advance organizations\' ESG agendas with purpose and real impact. I collaborate with them aiming to build or elevate their ESG foundations—whether that means ensuring compliance, embedding ESG into risk and strategy frameworks, or shaping compelling, investor-ready sustainability narratives. My journey spans heading an ESG tech platform at a successful startup to driving ESG advisory and client engagement today. Over the past six years, I have partnered on projects spanning decarbonization, climate risk management, and ESG strategy development. I have also created frameworks enabling alternative asset management firms to optimize portfolios through a robust ESG lens. Technology, data, and AI are at the core of my approach—enabling impactful, scalable, and enduring sustainability solutions. I also support professionals and teams looking to upskill in ESG through tailored training and thought leadership. With more than 19 years of experience, my learning comes from the successful products and solutions I have been part of and those that didn\'t work as expected! And I wear my learning on my sleeve. Let\'s connect if you want to exchange thoughts and ideas on innovation in products, tech and sustainability. Connect with me here on LinkedIn or at p••••••••@gmail.com.
