The Impact League - SailGP's
podium for the planet
SailGP is powered by nature and aims to deliver positive social and environmental impacts by creating a better sport, and a better planet, using the power of sport for good. We admire their ambitious targets, including a 55% reduction in their carbon footprint by 2025 and striving for greater gender equity in sailing.Â
The Sail GP Impact League, a competition for the teams tracking their positive actions, will help them reach their targets by focussing on these four key areas:Â
- The race to zero waste
- Accelerating inclusion
- Climate action
- Breaking boundaries
Impact League Adjudicator
Joshua Brunert, our Global Head of ESG Product Development, was a driving force behind the 2019 launch of our ESG product suite. He has supported the development of a comprehensive range of products – including ESG software, performance benchmarking and expert advisory – that address issues from regulatory reporting to impact investing.
Joshua is therefore an ideal choice to adjudicate the SailGP Impact League; as part of his role, Joshua will oversee a consistent and fair judging process as part of the sport’s Podium for the Planet.
