What are mid-sized companies really doing after the #Omnibus proposal? When the #CSRD scope changed, over 50 mid-sized companies we spoke with found themselves off the hook. But did they ditch ESG altogether? We saw 4 distinct response types emerge: 💡 The Champions (45%) They’re going beyond compliance, continuing with their double materiality assessment (#DMA) and aligning with #ESRS. Even without an audit requirement, they’re building ESG data capabilities today to future-proof tomorrow. ⚖️ The Pragmatists (25%) They want strategic insight without the reporting burden. So they use the #VSME standard, sometimes blending in high-priority ESRS topics to meet stakeholder needs with precision. 📉 The Minimalists (20%) Driven by external pressure (banks, clients), they adopt VSME reporting to tick the box and avoid risk, with minimal internal investment. 🕒 The Inactives (10%) They’re waiting for more clarity. But that window is closing fast, as data expectations from banks and customers are already aligned with VSME. Whether you’re a Champion or just starting out, one thing is clear:  Sustainability data is becoming a business language. And the companies learning to speak it now will be the ones heard tomorrow.

Last week, we brought together a brilliant group of sustainability consultants for our Partner Event, a morning packed with insights and meaningful conversations. Together, we explored the evolving ESG landscape, from the implications of the Omnibus regulation to practical guidance on E1 reporting and preparing for sustainability audits. The highlight? Hearing how the sessions gave our partners more confidence and direction in navigating CSRD compliance, despite all the recent changes. That’s exactly why we do this: to make sustainability reporting simpler, smarter, and more collaborative. A special thank you to Kenneth Van den Bergh and to Sien Eylenbosch for sharing valuable ESG insights. Huge thanks to everyone who joined us, both online and in person. Your engagement, questions, and feedback keep us moving forward. We’re already looking forward to the next one!
