Build what lasts.

Built climate solutions, ESG strategy tied to value, transition planning, and credible carbon accounting — sustainability as something built and measured, not just reported.

The shift has moved from setting targets to building the infrastructure. So have we.

What it is

The problem, and how we solve it.

Sustainability has moved from setting targets to building the infrastructure that meets them — and from glossy reports to hard, measurable change. This service reflects that shift. We build climate solutions rather than write about them, tie ESG strategy to real value, and produce carbon accounting that's defensible rather than decorative.

The work spans built solutions (the software and systems that run cleaner operations and infrastructure), ESG strategy that connects to growth and risk rather than sitting in a separate silo, transition planning toward lower carbon, and the measurement and reporting that regulators and investors increasingly demand. With the EU's rules tightening, credible carbon accounting is becoming a requirement, not a nicety.

It connects across the firm: built solutions draw on the Build group's engineering, the investment angle flows into Capital (the software layers that run clean infrastructure are exactly what we'd back), and the compliance side ties to Risk. Sustainability done this way is a value and resilience lever, not a cost.

What you get

The capabilities inside.

Engage one or several — most clients start with the sharpest one and expand.

Built climate solutions

Software and systems that run cleaner operations and infrastructure — built, not slideware.

ESG strategy

Credible and tied to value — connected to growth and risk, not a separate silo.

Transition planning

The path to lower carbon — sequenced, costed, and realistic.

Carbon & reporting

Measured and defensible — accounting that stands up to regulators and investors.

Circular models

Waste turned into worth — circular processes that also cut cost.

Climate-tech build

New clean-tech products and ventures — with a path into Cofoundry.

How we work with you

Five ways to bring us in.

Scoped to the outcome, not the hours. Most engagements start with a short readiness conversation, then take one of these shapes.

01

Build sprint

A fixed-scope build that ships a working system in weeks — not a phased programme that never lands.

02

Embedded operator

We sit inside your team and run the function until it's self-sustaining, then hand it over.

03

Readiness program

We get you ready for what's next — a raise, a sale, an AI rollout — and close the gaps first.

04

Fractional capability

A senior CFO, CMO, CSO, CHRO, or CTO for as long as you need one — full weight, part time.

05

Principal partnership

Where we believe, we put skin in — capital alongside you, or work for a share of the upside.

Packages

Fixed-scope ways to start.

Productised entry points — clear scope, clear outcome.

Strategy

ESG Strategy

Sustainability tied to value — credible, prioritised, and connected to the business.

Accounting

Carbon Accounting

Measured, defensible reporting — built for tightening EU and global rules.

Transition

Transition Plan

The costed, sequenced path to lower carbon — realistic, not aspirational.

Where it lands

Two angles, in the sectors we know.

Climate work lands hardest where regulation, cost, and infrastructure meet.

Questions, answered

The things people ask first.

Is this ESG reporting, or something more?

More. We build climate solutions and tie ESG to real value — reporting is one part, but the point is measurable change and the systems that deliver it, not a glossy document.

Why does carbon accounting matter now?

Because the rules are tightening. Credible, defensible carbon accounting is becoming a requirement for regulators and investors — not an optional nicety.

Can you build the clean-tech, not just advise?

Yes — built solutions draw on our engineering bench, and a genuine climate-tech product has a path into Cofoundry to become its own company.

How does sustainability connect to value?

Lower cost, lower risk, and new revenue. Done right it's a value and resilience lever, which is why the investment side flows into our Capital arm.
