Sustainability and responsibility are at the core of international business operations, and the pioneers in these topics need tools to showcase their efforts reliably. Companies, e.g. in the cleantech and circular economy field, are providing and developing solutions needed in the battle against climate change. To gain competitive advantage, one must stand out from the rest. The project ‘Carbon neutrality empowered by handprint’ is advancing the business opportunities and competitiveness of companies by developing an international framework for companies to reliably and credibly show their 1) climate neutrality and 2) the positive environmental impacts (handprint) of circular economy solutions. In addition to VTT, LUT University, and participating leading companies, a group of large companies and SMEs representing various branches are taking part in the project.
