What Nagel Sustainability - Advisory And Services does

Nagel Sustainability – Advisory & Services is a Milan-based, multidisciplinary ESG advisory firm founded in March 2023 by Erica Nagel. The firm supports corporate and institutional clients in Italy with the integration of environmental, social, and governance criteria into business activities, covering assessment, reporting, due diligence, ISO certifications, carbon neutrality, regulatory compliance (including CSRD, CSDDD, EU Taxonomy, MOG 231, Green Claims), mobility and facility management optimization, sustainability-focused communication and marketing, and ESG training for COO/CFO/Legal functions. The underlying technology stack is anchored by two proprietary assets: the Modello EASI® (Ecosistema Aziendale Sostenibile Integrato) framework, which is the first schema for integrating sustainability into corporate governance recognized by Accredia, Italy's national accreditation body, for third-party certification purposes; and the ESG Score EASI® assessment tool, which evaluates organizational ESG commitment, performance, and maturity along the supply chain relative to the EASI® Model.

The firm operates a pure professional services business model with custom quote-based pricing, multi-year contract cadence, and no public pricing. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct: engagements are sourced via the website contact form, email, phone, LinkedIn, content marketing through the company blog, partner referrals, and participation in industry events. Delivery is executed through cross-functional teams assembled on demand from an ecosystem of 16 specialized partners spanning legal, technology, materials/LCA, creative, training, and analytics domains. The customer base targets Italian corporate businesses (primary) and institutional organizations (public entities, associations, foundations), as well as companies pursuing ISO certifications (ISO 26000, ISO 20400, SA 8000, ISO 30415, UNI/PdR 125, ISO 37001, ISO 14064-1, ISO 14067, ISO 50001). No revenue, funding, or named customer logos are disclosed, and headcount sits at 1-10 employees.
