Sustainability Under Pressure
The German Sustainability Award is the largest of its kind in Europe and is presented annually to companies whose solutions and strategies make a measurable contribution to sustainable transformation.
The German Sustainability Award is also a symbol of future viability. “The new DNP identifies companies in all industries that have successfully embarked on the long and demanding path of transformation. No one has reached the finish line, and the industries face very different challenges.”
The corporate award of the German Sustainability Award honors pioneers in 100 industries and 20 sectors, with “around 240 experts from research, business, associations, and civil society voting on the nominees in 100 industries in the first of two jury rounds”.
