What ResNovae does

ResNovae S.M.P.C. is a Greek sustainability and investment consulting firm headquartered in Nea Ionia, Athens, founded in 2014 by Managing Director Dr. Nikolas Chr. Kakogiannis. The firm delivers advisory services across four practice areas — Environment and Biodiversity, ESG and Sustainability, Investment Consulting, and Business Consulting — supporting Greek and EU enterprises, SMEs, ministries, municipalities, and financial institutions with regulatory compliance, environmental assessments, and access to co-financed programs. ResNovae reports a cumulative NSRF project portfolio exceeding EUR 160M with submission success rates above 80%, and holds five ISO certifications (9001, 14001, 27001, 50001, 22301) alongside GRI, TÜV Nord, and UN Global Compact credentials.

The firm operates a dual product-and-services model anchored by ESGenius!, an AI-powered sustainability platform launched in 2023 that consolidates ESG data, automates CSRD/ESRS-aligned workflows, and covers Scope 1/2/3 emissions, supplier portals, biodiversity (ESRS E4/TNFD), and AI-driven decision intelligence through four modules (Core, Portal, Natura, Panorama). A second digital product, Business in One, aggregates Greek co-financed program calls (NSRF, Development Law, LEADER) for SMEs. ESGenius! is distributed via self-service freemium onboarding and Microsoft Marketplace, reaching 12,000+ users across 29 countries, while consulting services remain delivered through direct enterprise and public-sector engagement.

The client base spans large enterprises (TotalEnergies, Alumil, AVAX, PCT, EREN Hellas, ThPA S.A.), the Hellenic Development Bank, and Greek public-sector bodies (Ministry of Environment and Energy, EKETA, OFYPEKA, municipalities of Mandra-Eidyllia and Elefsina). ResNovae monetizes through project-based consulting fees and ESGenius! subscriptions, supported by strategic alliances with Elevate Greece, TÜV Austria, and four Greek universities (NKUA, University of Piraeus, NTUA) plus EKETA, and won the ESG Innovation Challenge from the Hellenic Development Bank in 2023.
