EkoBrain, the game-based methodology to accelerate sustainability in companies.

How to make a sustainable company? To design a business with sustainability at its core, several things must change in different parts of the company’s operation: in the products and services offered, in the way they are stored and delivered, in the type of relationship with suppliers and partners, in internal processes and even in the way we advertise.

But where do we start?

That’s the key question for many managers and leaders of companies, large and small (and medium-sized, and giants, and tiny and…).
