Why your Marketing strategy can’t stand alone anymore when greenwashing is everywhere. I keep seeing brands shouting about sustainability. But are they actually backing it up? At the IMPACT FESTIVAL in Frankfurt, the focus was on sustainable innovation and tangible solutions for a greener future. Dr. Eric Falk and I were there as he pitched the Filedgr solution for the Deutsche Börse Challenge. One of my highlights A keynote on the future of marketing by Lena Papasabbas and the Future Project. The message was clear: marketing needs a new direction. Here are three transformative strategies to get us there: ▪️Quality – Reinstate the essence of products. Embrace circular brands that reflect real value where quality is holistic. ▪️Community – In a fragmented world, people crave connection. Marketing can’t just be about differentiation anymore; it’s about genuine belonging. ▪️Integrity – Consumers are tired of empty promises. Today, they demand real accountability. This shift marks the comeback of honesty and ethics in brand storytelling. Mainova AG side event at Eintracht Frankfurt brought this to life - showing how emotional marketing can build a genuine brand connection. Touring the VIP lounges and hearing about Eintracht Frankfurt's #ESGstrategy underscored that, without authenticity, even the best campaign won’t resonate. So, what’s the missing link in creating sustainable, impactful marketing? It’s ✨data✨ Clean, well-managed data is the backbone of trust. And without a solid data management, even the best-intentioned marketing for sustainability falls short. Filedgr is dedicated to creating that transparency. With our tools, you gain reliable, transparent ESG and sustainability data - because true accountability starts here. It was great to meet everyone in person each one dedicated to making sustainability the standard, not the exception. 🎀 PS: Stopping by the Business Punk investment event was the 🍒 on top, catching up with new and familiar faces in the industry.

At the fourth edition of the IMPACT FESTIVAL my colleague Jakob Mentzingen and I had the opportunity to present our winner of the IMPACT Challenge 2024. The IMPACT Challenge is a #TechQuartier program that aims to bridge startups and corporates for a greener & social tomorrow. Our champion Filedgr 🏆 created a great concept how tokenization of circular commodities like aluminum and real-time data capture can contribute to transparency and trust - a pivotal prerequisite to foster trading. Congratulations! Well done! 💪

I am excited to join Filedgr and help them grow their community and following! They are unlocking business transparency using blockchain technology in a user friendly fashion. Control your data with Web3 technology!

Finally, Something Is Happening and it affects us all. That's what I thought when I was invited to the Digital Twin Transformation event hosted by the KI-Allianz Baden-Württemberg. The main topic: Using digital transformation and sustainability strategies as a competitive advantage. Jens Strüker from the Fraunhofer Blockchain-Labor presented four major obstacles currently hindering progress: ▪ Data is hard to obtain. ▪ The available data is incomplete or inaccurate. ▪ Companies are unwilling to share data because they don’t trust each other. ▪ Data sharing within companies is often difficult or impossible. Anyone who has ever worked on a sustainability report is familiar with these challenges. At the end of the year, a report must be compiled, requiring all the ESG-mandated data. According to Marlene O'Sullivan from badenova, there is often a lack of knowledge about which data is needed, how to collect it, and where to find it within the company. In addition, responsibility for the data poses a problem. According to CDO of Stadt FreiburgThomas Wiesler, the issue stems from management and the need for team education. It takes a lot of trust and training to make those responsible for the data more aware of its importance. The clear recommendation: Build up an internal sustainability expert instead of outsourcing the management of this data. Understandably, this creates a lot of pressure on decision-makers, especially with poor data availability, as noted by Felix Zimmermann, who advises family businesses for ESG-Strategy. A potential solution would be to gather sustainability data continuously throughout the year. The technology required must be able to manage real-time data, store it securely, verify it, ensure transparency while maintaining confidentiality, and provide auditability and provenance. Sounds nearly impossible, right? Well, I wasn't at this event for no reason. So, I asked this question: "What technical challenges do you see in implementing digital platforms that manage real-time data for sustainability reporting in a secure and auditable way?" The response: "That hits the heart of the problem." For me, this was confirmation that Filedgr provides the ideal solution for streamlining sustainability reporting and ensuring secure, transparent, and fully compliant data management. This was a fascinating topic for me, and I’m looking forward to attending the next event. Well done to the organizers, David Gelantia and Faissal Esmati, for bringing it to life. I’m proud to see Freiburg leading the way as a Smart City✨ 🎀 #twintransformation
