A remarkable example of Stakeholders’ Sustainability and #Vision. To create real #value in any enterprise, an embedded #sustainable #strategy is essential. The most successful companies know this, and they take bold action by mapping and prioritizing their #stakeholders, listening to their feedback, and investing in #innovation with a #longterm #orientation. No enterprise can afford to ignore #sustainability if they want to thrive in the long run. In this way, they understand and anticipate the #material needs of their stakeholders, and meeting these demands – from #consumers to #regulators - results in positive #impact, future #revenues, and #profits. A case in point. Yesterday, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released new Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for six PFAS-related #chemicals and set final enforceable MCLs. Two years ago, De Nora had already unveiled the solutions!  Complying with EPA standards to remove #PFAS from drinking #water can be expensive, costing #utilities billions of dollars. The American Water Works Association suggests it could cost up to $3.8 billion annually (or 3 times the EPA estimates). The EPA recommends #technologies such as granular activated carbon, reverse osmosis, and ion exchange systems to remove PFAS from drinking water. In 2022, De Nora – chaired by Federico De Nora and led by Paolo Dellachà - unveiled “standard designed systems to target per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in #watertreatment. The preconfigured SORB™ systems employ proven methods of contaminant removal to reduce PFAS in water sources to a non-detectable level, including ion exchange (IX) and granular activated carbon (GAC).” […] “The SORB product line has been a trusted name for 20 years and is known for making things easy, start to finish.” […] “The updated product line for PFAS treatment includes the SORB FX (IX resin) and SORB CX (GAC). Systems are pre-engineered and optimized on a local level, depending on variables such as flow, seasonality and targeted contaminants. In house engineers also have the unique ability to take budgetary concerns into consideration during the design phase, providing solutions that cater to operating or capital expense goals or availability.” https://lnkd.in/dmbZnJFx https://lnkd.in/d9vtAaxM Marwan Nesicolaci Chiara ANASF, AIFO - Associazione Italiana Family Officer, AIPB - Associazione Italiana Private Banking, AIAF Associazione Italiana per l'Analisi Finanziaria, Associazione Italiana Investor Relations - AIR, Academy - Euronext Group, Borsa Italiana, Euronext Forum per la Finanza Sostenibile (ItaSIF), TIRESIA Polimi, Eurosif - The European Sustainable Investment Forum, Climate Coaching Alliance Switzerland, Swiss Sustainable Finance, Luxembourg Sustainable Finance Initiative, AIDAF - Associazione Italiana delle Aziende Familiari, Family Business Forum,

L'archetipo dell'imprenditore moderno ed illuminato: Francesco Nalini, amministratore delegato di CAREL. L'intervista di Alessandra Puato sul Corriere della Sera (pagine 12 della sezione Economia) è assolutamente da leggere. Traspare in modo netto l'attenzione di Francesco, e della squadra di manager di Carel, a tutti gli #Stakeholders e l'importanza di concetti come #Education, #HumanCapital, #Governance, #Innovation, #Sustainability, e tanto altro.

RATIONAL SUSTAINABILITY  by Alex Edmans (London Business School) Sometimes, he is a bit abrasive and counterintuitive. Even divisive. I know that very well, but all the same, we can not do anything if I love his thought-provoking, original, rigorous challenges. Here are some excerpts of his article: - ‘This article has proposed “#Rational #Sustainability” as an alternative to #ESG – a term and practice that started off with much promise and good intentions, but has not achieved this promise due to true believers implementing it naively, ardent adversaries opposing it blindly, and opportunists exploiting it for self-interest.’ - ‘Some critics argue that considering #ESGrisks is inconsistent with #fiduciaryduty, but this is illogical since considering #risks is an essential part of fiduciary duty.’ - ‘Rational Sustainability is concerned with #outcomes, not #labels. The goal of sustainability is to create #longterm #value’.  - ‘Sustainability is pursued for intrinsic reasons – because it’s good for you. It allows organizations, ecosystems, populations, and organisms to thrive for decades, even centuries.’ - ‘Generating long-term, sustainable value is widely accepted as being a core – arguably the core – function of business. Finance 101 teaches you that #shareholdervalue is the present value of all #future #cashflows; any business decision should be evaluated by its long-term consequences.’ - ‘Sustainability recognizes the criticality of analyzing a company’s #impact on society, because many of those impacts will ultimately feed back and affect its #profits.’ - ‘I continue to strongly believe in the power of #purpose to generate #financial and #social #value.’ - ‘First, any societal objectives are pursued in a sustainable way. Targeting #diversity, #equity, and #inclusion (#DEI) by hiring minorities irrespective of their ability may improve a company’s short-term DEI statistics, but backfire in the long term as those hires don’t succeed and leave. The company itself suffers worse performance, hindering its ability to hire in the future.’ - ‘A company is not #responsible for addressing all of society’s challenges or pursuing all 17 #SustainableDevelopmentGoals. That’s the role of governments.’ - ‘Rational Sustainability allows #investors to exploit #market #irrationality – selling sustainable companies that are overpriced, or buying sustainable companies that are underpriced because they do not tick ESG boxes.’ - ‘Principle # 9 highlighted how the herd mentality can lead to market #bubbles and #crashes.’ Food for thoughts ...

Alcuni concetti emergono con continuità: #curiosità, #passione, #eccellenza, #qualità, la capacità e l'importanza di #ascoltare, i concetti di #ossessione e #paradosso (e.g., #longterm focus e #shortterm #execution), chi sono i veri #campioni, il significato di #wellness, la tensione continua alla #innovazione e alla #tecnologia, il #futuro e i #giovani, da un paesino vicino a #Cesena ai progetti per #Milano e l' #Italia guardando a tutto il #mondo, gli #stakehoders, il #sociale. E tanto, ma tanto altro ancora. https://lnkd.in/dxuYGTc6 MOMentum Alternative Investments SA Wellness Holding
