While governance and incentives play an important role for consumers and investors both ways, it is mainly corporate innovation that needs to achieve new pathways through new and sustainable business models. The third transition lab is therefore starting with the question ‚ what IS a truly sustainable business model’ and then looks at various streams in which components are inherited. Think of the circular economy, regenerative or restorative business models, clean technology, or the sharing economy. We will look into the developments around a ‚sustainable business model canvas’, ways to organize entrepreneurial collaboration around the target of a ‚green & inclusive economy’, but will also return to the consequences of these for corporate reporting. How will profit/loss accounts change, what will all of this mean for the balance sheet and its interpretation, and how will ‚success’ be reported to the stakeholders in sustainability or integrated reports?

R3_dotties_Past_140707 035 1st Annual Conference September 06, 2013 1st Annual Conference of the Reporting 3.0 Platform A critical reflection of the status quo of the ongoing development of Sustainability Reporting in the European and international context September 06, 2013, 09 am – 06 pm, Heinrich Böll Foundation, Schumannstraße 8, 10117 Berlin In September 2013, BSD Germany organized the sold-out conference ‘The Future of Sustainability Reporting’ – a critical reflection of the ongoing developments of Sustainability Reporting in the European and international context.’ The event did cover a plethora of issues and trends that influence the future of non-financial reporting, e.g. the move to integrated reporting, the confusion of the current standards on non-financial reporting, the further internalization of external effects, the implications of planetary boundaries and social developments on corporate growth paradigms, as well as the growing trend of companies to deliver against ‘North Stars’ and commit to ‘net-positive’ targets. documents transition_lab_01_ico Transition Lab 1 April 29, 2014 Transition Lab 1 – Bridging the Sustainability Context Gap Improvement of Context-Based Information as a Prerequisite for Meaningful Sustainability Reports April 29, 2014, 1pm – 6pm, GIZ House, Reichpietschufer 20, 10785 Berlin UN high-level conferences in the last couple of years propagated a ‘Green & Inclusive Economy’ as a counter-model to the paradigm of ever-growing economies, consumerism and individual optimization. It involves the recognition of planetary boundaries and places the desire for human well-being at the center. But can we already measure progress and how much of the journey towards a Green & Inclusive Economy is still yet to come? Starting from the goal-state of a Green & Inclusive Economy, the first Transition Lab 1 delivered possible solutions to significant challenges in this context in an interactive and structured discussion. One particular focus was the role of reporting for the necessary change processes towards the ‘green & inclusive economy’. documents Reporting 3.0 Transition Lab by BSD Transition Lab 2 June 27, 2014 Transition Lab 2 – Convergence in Sustainability Reporting Core Elements of Future-Ready Standards and Frameworks June 27, 2014, 12 pm – 6 pm, GIZ House, Reichpietschufer 20, 10785 Berlin The second Transition Lab in 2014 contributed to the consolidation of the debate around sustainability standards and frameworks, offered opportunities to exchange views on challenges for practical implementation and, based on their convergence, demonstrated approaches that can further increase the impact and relevance of sustainability reporting. In particular, the area around ‘materiality identification’ within the context of requirements for a stable sustainability management process as well as reporting using the six capitals framework of the IIRC as a connector and initial point of comprehensive reporting, was reconsidered. It became clear that clearer convergence is needed and that the six capitals framework needs considerable extra support to take up the role it could have in the aim to create a holistic structure to define ‘sustainable value-added’. documents Contact us BSD Germany Chausseestrasse 33 A, Berlin 10115, Germany germany@bsdconsulting.com +49 1578 030 2571 Show on Google maps Any questions?

While governance and incentives play an important role for consumers and investors both ways, it is mainly corporate innovation that needs to achieve new pathways through new and sustainable business models. The third transition lab is therefore starting with the question ‚ what IS a truly sustainable business model’ and then looks at various streams in which components are inherited. Think of the circular economy, regenerative or restorative business models, clean technology, or the sharing economy. We will look into the developments around a ‚sustainable business model canvas’, ways to organize entrepreneurial collaboration around the target of a ‚green & inclusive economy’, but will also return to the consequences of these for corporate reporting. How will profit/loss accounts change, what will all of this mean for the balance sheet and its interpretation, and how will ‚success’ be reported to the stakeholders in sustainability or integrated reports? R3_header_20003 Reporting 3.0 Kick Off Event China September 2014 Reporting 3.0 Roundtable Insights on the Future of Sustainability Reporting form the Chinese perspective September 05, 2014 Microsoft Accelerator Beijing, China BSD has initiated a worldwide dialog around the Future of Sustainability Reporting in various regions it is represented, building on the initial sold-out conference in Berlin, Germany, in September 2013. A one-year program of transition labs to further deepen insights on the most important issues is in full swing in 2014 in Europe, and on 6/7 October the 2nd annual conference in Berlin, Germany, titled ‚Reporting at the crossraods – ensuring purpose, practicability, performance’ has been announced. For this purpose BSD is inviting to a preparatory Roundtable in China, too. The aim of the Roundtables is to instigate a first round of input around the themes to be discussed at the 6/7 October conference in Berlin, seek high-level speakers for the conference, discuss possibilities of a delegation to be representing the region in Berlin, and to align first steps for a couple of transition labs, to be held directly in the region in 2015.

R3_dotties_Past_140707 035 1st Annual Conference September 06, 2013 1st Annual Conference of the Reporting 3.0 Platform A critical reflection of the status quo of the ongoing development of Sustainability Reporting in the European and international context September 06, 2013, 09 am – 06 pm, Heinrich Böll Foundation, Schumannstraße 8, 10117 Berlin In September 2013, BSD Germany organized the sold-out conference ‘The Future of Sustainability Reporting’ – a critical reflection of the ongoing developments of Sustainability Reporting in the European and international context.’ The event did cover a plethora of issues and trends that influence the future of non-financial reporting, e.g. the move to integrated reporting, the confusion of the current standards on non-financial reporting, the further internalization of external effects, the implications of planetary boundaries and social developments on corporate growth paradigms, as well as the growing trend of companies to deliver against ‘North Stars’ and commit to ‘net-positive’ targets. documents transition_lab_01_ico Transition Lab 1 April 29, 2014 Transition Lab 1 – Bridging the Sustainability Context Gap Improvement of Context-Based Information as a Prerequisite for Meaningful Sustainability Reports April 29, 2014, 1pm – 6pm, GIZ House, Reichpietschufer 20, 10785 Berlin UN high-level conferences in the last couple of years propagated a ‘Green & Inclusive Economy’ as a counter-model to the paradigm of ever-growing economies, consumerism and individual optimization. It involves the recognition of planetary boundaries and places the desire for human well-being at the center. But can we already measure progress and how much of the journey towards a Green & Inclusive Economy is still yet to come? Starting from the goal-state of a Green & Inclusive Economy, the first Transition Lab 1 delivered possible solutions to significant challenges in this context in an interactive and structured discussion. One particular focus was the role of reporting for the necessary change processes towards the ‘green & inclusive economy’. documents Reporting 3.0 Transition Lab by BSD Transition Lab 2 June 27, 2014 Transition Lab 2 – Convergence in Sustainability Reporting Core Elements of Future-Ready Standards and Frameworks June 27, 2014, 12 pm – 6 pm, GIZ House, Reichpietschufer 20, 10785 Berlin The second Transition Lab in 2014 contributed to the consolidation of the debate around sustainability standards and frameworks, offered opportunities to exchange views on challenges for practical implementation and, based on their convergence, demonstrated approaches that can further increase the impact and relevance of sustainability reporting. In particular, the area around ‘materiality identification’ within the context of requirements for a stable sustainability management process as well as reporting using the six capitals framework of the IIRC as a connector and initial point of comprehensive reporting, was reconsidered. It became clear that clearer convergence is needed and that the six capitals framework needs considerable extra support to take up the role it could have in the aim to create a holistic structure to define ‘sustainable value-added’. documents Contact us BSD Germany Chausseestrasse 33 A, Berlin 10115, Germany germany@bsdconsulting.com +49 1578 030 2571 Show on Google maps Any questions?
