SUSTAINABILITY
& TRANSFORMATION

Empowering Business to Thrive in a Sustainable World.

At Verdian, we strive to connect business, society, and nature into a symbiotic whole.

We partner with clients who also believe that the more sustainable society we achieve, the more successful we all will be.

about us

We advise on sustainability transformation and related regulation.

We understand that for sustainability to work, it needs to be beneficial for business as well as for nature and society.

We live our values of accountability, respect and freedom, and recognize the power of collaboration and innovation.

We acknowledge the complex ethical challenges in sustainability transformations and apply high ethical standards.

Both our advisory and legal backgrounds have taught us to see the big picture for a strategic outlook with eye for detail.

Together, we have dozens of years of experience in working with leading multinationals, mid-sized businesses, and public bodies.

Our flexibility and drive allow us to continue evolving hand-in-hand with unprecedently rapid changes in society, regulations, and clients’ needs.

We have a respect for the speed and complexity of the sustainability transformation of society and organizations, and believe in the power of networking.

We use a professional sense for when to rely on our own expertise and when to team up with verified specialists for our projects delivered across Europe.

We walk the talk and challenge ourselves every day to give the best out of ourselves to our clients and society.
