This collaboration brings together CSRHub's global ESG data products and ratings platform with SG Analytics' AI-driven sustainability advisory expertise to help organizations accelerate their ESG maturity.
CSRHub is pleased to announce a new strategic partnership with SG Analytics (SGA), a Straive company, a leading AI-powered research and analytics firm. The partnership combines CSRHub's extensive ESG ratings and benchmarking tools with SG Analytics' specialized AI operationalization for ESG data, research, advisory and reporting services, offering clients a more complete pathway from ESG insight to ESG action.
"Data alone doesn't drive transformation, it's what organizations do with that data that matters," said Bahar Gidwani, co-founder and CTO, CSRHub. "By partnering with SG Analytics, we're connecting our ratings and benchmarking capabilities with a team that can help companies translate insight into a concrete ESG strategy, reporting practice, and guide for improvement. It's a natural fit for clients looking to move from measurement to meaningful progress."
"SG Analytics is excited to join forces with CSRHub," said Jayaprakash Mallikarjuna, Chief Operating Officer at SG Analytics. "As part of Straive, we bring an AI-first approach to ESG research and advisory. Combining that with CSRHub's trusted data and ratings ecosystem lets us offer clients a seamless, end-to-end ESG experience, spanning data sourcing and standardization with full traceability, benchmarking against peers, and strategy development through confident progress reporting."
Why It Matters
As regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations around sustainability continue to expand, organizations increasingly need both reliable ESG data and expert guidance to act on it. This partnership is intended to give companies a single, connected path from understanding where they stand today to building and executing a credible ESG strategy for tomorrow.
