Sustainability software provider osapiens announced an expansion into the UK market, with plans to invest €35 million and creating more than 150 sustainability roles to help firms meet compliance requirements.
Founded in 2018, Mannheim, Germany-based osapiens provides cloud-based software solutions aimed at enabling organizations to automate complex compliance tasks, streamline operations, and monitor sustainability metrics in real time, and to comply with national and international sustainability regulations. The company’s AI-powered platform, osapiens HUB includes transparency solutions enabling companies to map and monitor value chains to mitigate risk and comply with regulatory requirements such as EUDR, CSRD and CSDDD, and efficiency solutions to help support asset performance, maintenance, planning, and field service operations.
The new investment plans come as UK companies may face increasing sustainability-related compliance requirements, with the government now considering the introduction of mandatory sustainability reporting requirements for some companies, and having recently released proposed new UK Sustainability Reporting Standards (UK SRS).
The announcement follows a $120 million capital raise by osapiens last year, which the company said would support its growth in new and existing markets, as well as the acceleration of product innovation.
Alberto Zamora, Co-Founder and CEO at osapiens, said:
“At osapiens, we believe that transparency and efficiency are the foundations of sustainable growth. Our expansion into the UK marks a major step in our mission to help companies meet sustainability and compliance goals through AI-driven innovation.”
