What ESGpedia does

ESGpedia is a Singapore-headquartered ESG data and technology company founded in 2019 that operates a regional sustainability platform serving enterprises, SMEs, and financial institutions across the Asia-Pacific. The platform aggregates ESG information from 100,000+ sustainability reports covering 156,000+ companies and 521,000+ company profiles, producing 5 million+ structured data points used for benchmarking, regulatory reporting, and disclosure. Its core technology is a proprietary AI engine that ingests unstructured sustainability disclosure into standardized metrics, paired with an ISO 14064-validated Carbon Calculator built on 280,000+ emission factors localized for APAC contexts. The product suite spans a Carbon Calculator (Scope 1, 2, and 3), an ESG data intelligence platform, sustainability reporting tooling, supply chain ESG screening, a sustainable finance platform, and event carbon footprinting, with a GRI Sustainability Reporting Standards license and operational certifications including ISO 27001, ISO 22301, SOC 2 Type 2, and the Singapore DPTM designation.

The company commercializes through a three-tier freemium SaaS model — Essentials, Premium, and Enterprise — alongside sustainable-finance platform fees charged to banks that screen and process ESG-linked loans, with over $150 million in loans supported through the platform to date. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales with bank-led channel partnerships (OCBC, Maybank, CIMB, DBS, UOB, Citi, Standard Chartered, KBank) and ESG grant co-funding that can cover up to 70% of project costs for qualifying SMEs. ESGpedia extends its footprint through the ESBN Asia-Pacific Green Deal program co-launched with the UN ESCAP Sustainable Business Network and an ESG marketplace that convenes corporates, suppliers, and financiers on shared infrastructure. Customer coverage spans banking, construction, real estate, pharma, education, gaming, fintech, and MICE, anchored by a base of 1,000+ organizations and a staff of roughly 46 employees as of the most recent reporting period.
