Garrett Kephart
Customer Director, ESG and Social Impact
We partner with public, private and nonprofit leaders to architect and deliver strategy, technology and transformation solutions to the world’s most pressing environmental, social and public health challenges.
Our world is rapidly shifting. Challenges such as climate change, social justice, health equity, supply chain resilience, circularity and the energy transition can impact business performance, create existential threats, and present new growth opportunities. These challenges require cross-sector partnership and interdisciplinary solutions that serve customers, employees, investors, governments and our communities. We lead with empathy and more than 25 years of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and Social Impact expertise to help our customers manage the risks and capture new value streams created by environmental and social change.
On March 21, 2022, the SEC announced a sweeping new proposal for climate-related disclosures by public companies in the United States. There will be important implications for nearly every publicly listed US company, and Point B has a strong perspective to understand next steps and how this rule will impact your organization.
Our Expertise
Prepare for a Low Carbon Future
Trillions of dollars ($USD) will be invested annually in low carbon products and services in the coming decades.¹
Decarbonization is more than a compliance mandate, business imperative or a competitive advantage: it represents one of the great market opportunities of the 21st century. We help design, develop and implement science-based climate action plans that can create new value streams, navigate market and regulatory trends, accelerate positive change and meet stakeholder demands.
