New Erasmus+ Project: ESG Business Model Innovation 



Starkmacher Impact is committed to sustainable business consulting  

 

We are excited to announce another groundbreaking educational project under the Erasmus+ program: “ESG Business Model Innovation – Enabling Business Leaders and Consultants to Facilitate Business Model Innovation in View of ESG Requirements by Means of Capacity Building.” 

In collaboration with international partners, we are developing a comprehensive training package that equips business leaders and consultants with the skills to actively integrate ESG principles (Environmental, Social, Governance) into business strategies. This is not just about reporting but about real, sustainable transformation.



Why this project matters:  


✔ ESG requirements are becoming an essential part of corporate management in Europe. 


✔ Companies benefit in the long run from sustainable business models that are both environmentally and economically future-proof. 


✔ Through practical training materials – including a handbook, webinars, podcasts, and interactive learning formats – business consultants and executives receive concrete tools to integrate ESG into business models.


 

With strong partners from Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, and Hungary, we are fostering a Europe-wide transfer of knowledge to drive sustainable innovation. We firmly believe this project will make a significant contribution to preparing businesses for a sustainable future! 


🚀 This project is co-funded by the European Union under the Erasmus+ program (KA210-VET – Small-scale partnerships in vocational education and training).
