VERSO

Company

As a pioneer in the area of corporate sustainability, VERSO holistically supports medium-sized companies in their sustainable transformation with its software (SaaS) solution and services for sustainability management. Consulting and training in the areas of ESG reporting and management, supply chain management and climate accounting make VERSO a comprehensive partner for corporate sustainability and ESG. With VERSO, companies meet regulatory requirements in a technology-based, simple and secure way. In particular, the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive), the LkSG (Supply Chain Due Diligence Act), the European Supply Chain Directive CSDDD (Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive) and other European and national legal requirements. With VERSO, sustainability managers professionalize and digitize their CSR management or multiply the efficiency of their existing processes. VERSO is therefore the operating system and cockpit for corporate sustainability management. VERSO GmbH, based in Munich, was founded in 2010 by Andreas Maslo and Florian Holl and is now managed by the two founders together with Nuvia Maslo and Alexander Penitsch.

Market & Drivers

As a European sustainability pioneer, VERSO offers a strong and established solution for companies within the ESG market. The company is thus ideally positioned to benefit from the EU-CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) and the CSDDD or the Supply Chain Act LkSG) in the long term. With the directive for capital market-oriented companies adopted in 2017 and the Europe-wide expansion to include smaller SMEs adopted in 2022, VERSO addresses the increasing need for digitization and knowledge in various areas of sustainability in SMEs. In addition, there are further increasing regulatory challenges (e.g. CBAM, Green Claims Directive), for which VERSO is already successfully preparing its customers.
