Sustainability Is Our Passion

From consultancy to community building – we support organisations on their path to sustainability

KATE - Your Partner for Sustainable Transformation

Sustainability doesn’t begin with perfect solutions. It begins with a concrete first step. We support companies and organisations in embedding sustainability into their operations – strategically, pragmatically and with a view to the bigger picture.

Whether it’s sustainability management, climate action or climate adaptation – we apply our expertise where it matters most. Through consultancy, training, networking formats and structured reflection on roles and processes.

For more than 25 years, we have been developing solutions together with our partners that provide orientation, foster clarity and enable change. Our work is collaborative, pragmatic and grounded in mutual respect. We are not profit-driven – our focus is on impact. Our aim is to make sustainable transformation tangible and achievable.

Whether you’re at the starting point or a key milestone – we look forward to working with you.
