About ESG Intelligence

Who we are?

We are a research firm that has been tracking the sustainable and digital transformation of organizations for more than eight years now. Founded in 2016, by Sumit Kumar and Kanchan Singh, after having worked on ESG Assessment of companies for clients that included ESG rating agencies, corporations, and even for investors. We have built a small team of researchers who are adept at conducting bespoke research on various sustainability and technology areas.

In our journey at ESG Intelligence, we have helped large corporations assess their supply chain sustainability challenges, by conducting in-depth supplier risk assessments of their critical suppliers that included 360-degree analysis of their business, financial and sustainability-related risks. 

We have also tracked the enterprise adoption of blockchain technology ever since the crypto boom of late 2017. While doing this, we have seen this technology being used as a synonym for bitcoin to it becoming a critical enabling element of the digital transformation stack for CIOs and CTOs around the world.

Beyond blockchain, we have worked on reports that traced the disruption and evolution happening in various sectors such as CleanTech, SpaceTech, AgTech, FinTech, Healthtech, and even the Cannabis sector as they adopt emerging technologies.

Why ESG Intelligence?

In today’s interconnected global economy, supply chain resilience and sustainability have become critical determinants of business success. ESG Intelligence was founded with a clear vision: to empower companies to build more sustainable, transparent, and resilient supply chains through advanced risk assessment and continuous monitoring.

Our journey began with the recognition that traditional supplier assessment methods were insufficient for modern business challenges. While financial metrics remain crucial, they tell only part of the story. Environmental impact, social responsibility, and governance practices have emerged as equally vital indicators of a supplier’s long-term viability and reliability.

ESG Intelligence bridges this gap by providing comprehensive supplier risk assessments that integrate both financial and ESG metrics. Our proprietary methodology evaluates suppliers across multiple dimensions, from carbon footprint and resource management to labor practices and corporate governance. This holistic approach enables companies to identify potential risks before they materialize into costly disruptions.

What sets us apart is our commitment to continuous monitoring and early warning detection. We understand that supplier risk profiles are not static. Through advanced analytics and real-time monitoring, we alert our clients to emerging risks in their supply chain, enabling proactive risk management rather than reactive crisis response.

Our team combines deep expertise in supply chain management, sustainability, and risk assessment with cutting-edge technology. This unique blend allows us to deliver insights that are both sophisticated and actionable, helping companies make informed decisions about their supplier relationships.

As global supply chains face increasing scrutiny from regulators, investors, and consumers, ESG Intelligence stands ready to help companies navigate these challenges and transform their supply chains into sources of competitive advantage and sustainable growth.
