 Why ESG matters more than ever for tech companies and MSPs 

In today’s digital economy, ESG — Environmental, Social, and Governance — isn’t just a buzzword. It’s a strategic priority for risk management, investor confidence, and long-term growth. 

For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and tech firms, integrating ESG is no longer optional. It’s a clear signal to enterprise clients, procurement teams, and investors that you’re ready for the future. 

 

What is ESG? 

  • Environmental: Your impact on the planet (e.g., energy usage, emissions, e-waste) 
  • Social: Your impact on people (e.g., labor practices, diversity, privacy) 
  • Governance: Your corporate structure (e.g., compliance, transparency, leadership)

 

ESG compliance: Europe vs. the United States 

Europe: Regulation leads the way 

The EU is setting the global pace on ESG with mandatory frameworks: 

  • CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive): Expands ESG reporting to over 50,000 companies by 2026 
  • EU Taxonomy: Defines what counts as a sustainable economic activity 

MSPs serving EU-based clients must show ESG alignment — including emissions tracking, supply chain transparency, and governance readiness. 

 

United States: Market forces in motion 

While the U.S. lacks sweeping legislation, momentum is growing: 

  • SEC Climate Disclosure (proposed): Will require public companies to disclose climate risks 
  • Investor expectations: ESG investments reached $8.4 trillion in 2022 — and growing 

U.S.-based MSPs may not yet face legal mandates, but enterprise clients increasingly require ESG-readiness in supplier assessments.
