At Hedgehog Company, we take an entrepreneurial and interdisciplinary approach to realise sustainability together with our partners. Our dot on the horizon is a climate neutral 2030. We do not write reports that end up in drawers of CEOs. Instead, we build targeted, feasible, and affordable impact strategies!
We do not ‘just’ deliver your results and report. When a project ends, we actually take the time for our free delivery meeting with you and your colleagues. In this meeting, we ensure the correct interpretation and implementation of the results. We also create your personal dashboard on our web based app. This dashboard lets you access your results in a clear overview anytime you want and can be a starting point to monitor your progress over the years.
In the delivery meeting, we discuss low-hanging fruit solutions to improve your sustainable performance in the short term. In addition, we support the thought process for your sustainable strategy towards 2030, and beyond.
A wise man once said, ‘you can’t manage, what you can’t measure’. All our projects start with a sustainability impact assessment. Depending on your goal and situation, this assessment can be on a product, service, organisation, construction project or full investment portfolio.
Sustainable transition needs a different approach, focused on interdisciplinary thinking. We need your insights to translate your activities into correct sustainability impact metrics. Hence, we strive for a collaborative relationship with our clients, instead of a conventional customer relationship.
Cliché but true. We’ve started this business to create impact by doing. We are intrinsically motivated to improve our relationship with each other and our planet.
At Hedgehog Company, we work with businesses, investors, and construction project developers across the planet. We enable your sustainable transition with a systems-thinking approach, entrepreneurial drive, and data-driven support.
