20.10.2021 15:02:13 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
pulsESG™ today announced the launch of its enterprise environmental, social, and governance (ESG) software as a service (SaaS) platform backed by $8.5 million in seed funding from leading impact-driven investors and led by two Silicon Valley enterprise software veterans. The platform distinguishes itself in the marketplace through features such as model-driven architecture and full integration with both internal sources of data and external investor-facing systems, empowering companies to track and derive insights for ESG compliance and improvement based on stakeholder requirements. The company emerged from stealth mode today and the product is expected to be made generally available in Q1 2022.
Led by tech veterans and co-founders Murat Sönmez and Inderjeet Singh, the pulsESG™ platform is designed to take a different approach to ESG analysis than what currently exists in the marketplace by providing comprehensive, auditable, and accurate deep analytics that can be integrated with both the source and destination ESG systems of customers. This new level of information empowers enterprises to make more informed ESG decisions using a platform that also provides end-users the flexibility to modify it based on changes in the ESG regulatory landscape and according to their stakeholder needs.
“Amidst changing impact benchmarks at national and global levels, accurate and reliable ESG analysis is moving from ‘nice-to-have’ to ‘must-have’ for enterprises worldwide, so we sought to develop a platform to help customers navigate this fluid landscape,” explained Co-founder, President, and CTO Inderjeet Singh. “The pulsESG™ platform was designed to raise the bar on quality and timeliness, allowing customers to respond to changes in the ESG models themselves, not just data points within current data models.”
“Simply put, pulsESG™ offers an integrated, comprehensive, and flexible SaaS platform for enterprises to define, capture, analyze, derive insight, and improve their ESG footprint,” added Murat Sönmez, Co-founder and CEO.
While private equity firms, their investors, and other stakeholders increasingly take ESG impacts and risk into account, the measurement tools and benchmarks for each continue to evolve—both across sectors and jurisdictions. Sönmez and Singh saw the opportunity to leverage their experience with SaaS platforms, integration, business processes, analytics, and master data management to create a system to help enterprises navigate and respond to this inherent fluidity in ESG analysis. The result of their vision is the pulsESG™ platform.
Sönmez and Singh have found early backing from leading investors in the impact-driven investment space, including FINTOP Capital, Aligned Climate Capital, SOMPO Holdings (Japan), Builders VC, eLab Ventures, and individual investors including Alberto Cribiore and André Borschberg.
Prior to co-founding pulsESG™, Murat Sönmez was a member of the founding team at TIBCO Software and led it past the billion-dollar revenue mark as the head of its customer facing operations. Sönmez later joined the Managing Board of the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, leading its global business community engagement efforts, and subsequently established and led its global technology policy network out of San Francisco.
pulsESG™ Co-founder Inderjeet Singh was most recently responsible for Oracle’s middleware and cloud platform and previously for TIBCO’s infrastructure products. Inderjeet joined TIBCO Software through the acquisition of Velosel—a leading master data management platform—where he was part of the founding team and led all product functions.
