About ESG Impact
ESG Impact is “an ai-driven software platform that targets Healthcare, Oil & Gas, and Tech companies and the funds that invest in them.” ESG Impact’s product auto-generates improvement projects, benchmarking to public markets, and gives reporting deliverables for stakeholder engagement.
“Our mission is to democratize access to ESG in private markets by providing a pragmatic and accessible platform that can work with customers at their given stage, industry, and sector.”
Every entrepreneurial journey is different; each including highs and lows. Max explains that one of the biggest challenges that he has faced is navigating the processes of founding a business. He shares, “No one wants to make dumb mistakes with a start-up and we’ve tried to be as intentional as possible. Many of the operational, fundraising, and customer-centric decisions that we’ve made have come from us working with our advisors and support network.”
Max states that founding a company has “taken a village to get to this point, and so the highest and lowest points that we’ve experienced have been working to create the best support system around our team.” A victory that Max and his co-founder Adam have celebrated is the news of their new CTO, Anthony Inman.
When asked how the community can support Max and ESG Impact, Max states, “We’d appreciate any/all introductions into this space as ESG & Sustainability is gaining huge momentum within the Oil and Gas industry specifically.”
