apexanalytix Acquires ESG Enterprise

GREENSBORO, N.C. & HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–apexanalytix� (“apex”), a leading provider of global supply chain risk management data, software and services, and ESG Enterprise (the “Company”), a provider of environmental, social and governance (ESG) management data, software and services, today announced that apex has acquired ESG Enterprise. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

ESG Enterprise helps companies meet their ESG and climate objectives through a suite of software solutions that include a front-end data management platform, and artificial intelligence (AI) powered supply chain analytics that combine to offer customers one of the most comprehensive products currently available on the market. The Company’s data-powered cloud platform provides the rigorous ESG risk and climate data necessary for companies to effectively measure their climate footprints; meet Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 reporting requirements; and comply with international regulations and other leading ESG reporting frameworks.

ESG Enterprise uses AI and publicly available data to maintain a map of ESG characteristics across global supply chains, providing proprietary scores, company profiles, and benchmarks that help companies assess the ESG attributes of their supply chains significantly faster and more accurately than other ESG assessment methods.

“Joining apex will enable us to make even more of an impact by helping more companies measure and therefore manage the full spectrum of sustainability risks and opportunities throughout their customers’ large and complex operations and supply chains,” said Alan Lee, CEO of ESG Enterprise. “We look forward to continuing to innovate and further build out our technology for their benefit.”

“When it comes to sustainability, requirements and objectives can vary widely from company to company, industry, and region,” said Danny Thompson, SVP of Market and Product Strategy for apex. “We are committed to giving our clients the power and flexibility to meet their business objectives and helping them manage the ESG footprints of both their operations and supply chains is a key part of that.”

This transaction is the latest milestone in the growth of apex, which received a majority investment from funds managed by KKR, a leading global investment firm, in 2022. Carousel Capital also continues to be a minority investor in apex.
