MELBOURNE, VIC – [14 July 2025] – We are proud to announce that Impact HQ has been selected as the first official local training partner of EcoVadis Australia, the global standard in sustainability ratings for supply chains.

This partnership represents a significant step forward in our mission to empower Australian companies to enhance their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance. By combining EcoVadis’ globally recognised assessment methodology with our deep local market knowledge and on-ground training expertise, we are helping businesses translate sustainability ambitions into measurable progress.

“The EcoVadis rating is now a globally critical benchmark for corporate sustainability. Our partnership brings Australian businesses direct access to tailored ESG guidance, documentation support, and supplier engagement programs. Through our practical and strategic advisory services, we aim to ensure companies don’t just comply — they lead.” said Dr Richa Vijayraj, Director at Impact HQ.
