Sustainability Requirements Explained for Very Small Businesses is a podcast for leaders of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises facing increasingly frequent CSR, ESG, or sustainability requests.
Supplier questionnaires, ESG scorecards, assessment platforms, responsible procurement tenders, and requests for evidence: these requirements often arrive without clear explanation, without a method, and with very real commercial pressure.
This podcast was created to bring clarity where there is a lot of confusion.
Each episode explains, in simple and practical language:
- why these requests are happening now,
- what your clients actually expect,
- and how to respond credibly, realistically, and in a way that fits the reality of a very small business.
No unnecessary jargon, no theoretical discourse, and no solutions designed for large corporations.
The podcast draws on frameworks suited to very small businesses, such as the VSME (Very Small and Medium Enterprises) standard, to help companies focus on the essentials, formalise what already exists, and meet client requirements without overhauling their organisation.
Sustainability Requirements Explained for Very Small Businesses is for leaders who want to remain suppliers, stay credible, and stay in control when facing CSR and ESG requirements.
