ESG Rewards and TALK&IN born with the European project TranspArEEnS (Mainstreaming Transparent Assessment of Energy Efficiency in Environmental Social Governance Ratings), developed to offer to micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises and the financial market a standard model to evaluate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors with transparency and rigor.

The TranspArEEnS project was developed thanks to the decade-long work and global-scale analyses of the Department of Economics of the University Ca’ Foscari of Venice, which led the coordination. TranspArEEnS enjoyed the support of the European Commission, the European Investment Bank (EIB), and the European Investment Fund (EIF), involving the Leibniz Institute for Financial Research SAFE, CRIF SPA, Modefinance SRL, European Mortgage Federation.

The final result of TranspArEEnS was the involvement of over 5,000 companies, a significant professional growth for all stakeholders, and an important progress in knowledge.

For the dissemination and engagement activities, TranspArEEnS relied on Prospiciunt, which conceived the two formats ESG Rewards and TALK&IN to not disperse knowledge, enrich it, and more importantly share it as largest as possible.

Professors, citizens, politicians, entrepreneurs, artisans, managers, bankers, employees, students, and practitioners — all are part of this journey to navigate increasingly challenging times.

ESG Rewards and TALK&IN rely on a committee of experienced partners with over twenty years of activity in their fields, alongside juniors to capture the expectations of new generations.

These circular exchange of information and experiences, involvement across sectors, and focus on tangible results define the ESG Rewards selection committee.

The evaluation protocol for rewards also considers the ability to address key challenges with a long-term perspective.
