Briink, a pioneer in AI-driven solutions for ESG, is thrilled to announce its strategic partnership with Sustainometric, a leading ESG research company and advisory firm. This collaboration aims to revolutionize ESG research through AI-driven innovation. 

ESG insights are increasingly essential to drive transparency, accountability, and responsible decision-making in the corporate world, enabling organizations to navigate the complexities of ESG issues, reduce risks, seize opportunities, and contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future.

Sustainometric is dedicated to providing high-quality, customized ESG/sustainability research and advice to a diverse clientele, including investors, ESG database & index providers, and thematic raters. 

Through their strategic partnership, Sustainometric and Briink will co-develop cutting-edge solutions designed to harness the power of AI-driven automation for more scalable ESG data analysis that can address the specific needs of ESG research teams. 

By blending Sustainometric's expertise in ESG research with Briink’s AI-driven ESG data extraction and analysis software, the partnership seeks to enhance the accuracy, speed, and reliability of ESG data extraction.

"We are excited about our partnership with Briink, which allows us to elevate our ESG data analysis capabilities to new heights," said Kanchan Mishra, Founder and Executive Director at Sustainometric. "As ESG considerations become increasingly critical for investors and organizations, our collaboration will empower us to deliver even more valuable insights."

One key aspect of this collaboration is the commitment to a human-in-the-loop approach to development of AI tools for ESG data management. While AI can significantly streamline processes, human expertise helps ensure the quality of AI-driven insights, interpret results, and address nuanced research use cases effectively.

"We view this partnership as a unique opportunity to enhance our AI-driven solutions through Sustainometric’s leading industry and research knowledge," stated Tomas van der Heijden, CEO and Co-Founder of Briink.
