EditorialEspoo Companies and Global Impact Analyzed with Upright Cooperation
The circular economy is achieved through cooperation. The results of the impact assessment sparked lively discussions among partners at a seminar on the cycle of plastic, which was held in March.
"Assessing the Positive Impact of Espoo's Sustainable Development Partners with Upright"
The cooperation with Upright Oy has analyzed how business operations in Espoo impact society, focusing on sustainable development. The study reveals that circular economy practices in construction, renewable energy, electric vehicle charging, and plastics recycling have a positive influence on residents' lives. The assessment examines the effectiveness of companies' core operations in terms of societal, knowledge, health, and environmental dimensions. It emphasizes the importance of companies aligning their resources, products, and services to have a positive impact on the world.
Upright employs a mathematical model utilizing machine-learning tools and scientific data to provide comparable effectiveness data for companies. The model considers the entire value chain, from material procurement to product use and disposal, without requiring additional resources from the municipality or companies. Understanding and enhancing sustainability perspectives are crucial for future funding and employee attraction.
