Sustainability Intelligence firm Risilience helps organizations to financially quantify sustainability risks and opportunities to inform better decision-making

CAMBRIDGE, England, Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Risilience, the SaaS-based, Sustainability Intelligence platform, has been announced as the official Finance Partner of Climate Week NYC 2024 by Climate Group in a move that will see the company take the lead in helping organizations financially quantify sustainability risks and opportunities.

Through the partnership, Risilience will engage with global organizations to help them make science-led decisions, identify potential risks and opportunities, and optimize the allocation of budget and resources with the aim of building their resilience in a fast-changing business environment.

To drive this message home at Climate Week NYC, Risilience will lead a program of events throughout the week, focusing on the importance of financial quantification across reporting and transition planning, guiding businesses on how to make their organizations profitably sustainable.

"Financial quantification is one of the major sustainability challenges today's companies face, but it's also a major opportunity for them," commented Risilience co-founder and CEO, Dr Andrew Coburn. "A strategic, business-wide approach to sustainability has the power to coordinate all areas of the business and take great strides towards what we call the net-positive economy. A common language that is mutually understood is what's required for sustainability leaders to build a business case internally, and this must always be underpinned by financial quantification."

Born out of the University of Cambridge Centre for Risk Studies, Risilience has a proven track record of helping global brands including Nestle, Reckitt, and Coca-Cola Europacific Partners deliver audit-grade reporting and disclosures, transition planning, and decision support that enables businesses to unify sustainability with business strategies. The company's Sustainability Intelligence SaaS suite enables global corporations to financially quantify risks and opportunities from climate and nature to enable better reporting, transition planning, and strategic decision-making.

Climate Week NYC is hosted by Climate Group, a nonprofit organization with a mission to drive climate action and achieve a world of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, with greater prosperity for all. 'We're proud to be partnering with Risilience', said David Adshead, Head of Sponsorships at Climate Group. "We work with hundreds of leading companies across the globe, all transitioning to a net-zero economy, and data plays a critical role in that transition. Without it, organizations can't make the proper assessments or decisions. It's great to have the experts from Risilience involved in Climate Week NYC, where we celebrate wins and achievements, but also focus on the challenges that lie ahead."

"It's a real honour to be the official Finance Partner of Climate Week NYC, a flagship event at the heart of the global climate agenda," continued Coburn. "Through our powerful platform, team of experts, events, and research-backed approach to Sustainability Intelligence, we are looking forward to helping progressive US organizations prepare for evolving climate-and-nature-related risks and opportunities. We're thrilled to partner with Climate Week NYC to support their ambitious goals and align with their key messages."
