VISION
En el terreno económico, mas que nunca, la incapacidad de adaptación conduce irremediablemente a la extinción.
Una breve historia:
En los años 60, los inversores empezaron a considerar las inversiones socialmente responsables, excluyendo de sus carteras sectores enteros, como la producción de tabaco o la participación en el régimen de apartheid sudafricano.
En 2000,, para combatir la indignidad de la pobreza, una conferencia de las Naciones Unidas lanzó un esfuerzo global con los Objetivos de Desarrollo del Milenio (ODM).
En 2015, nacieron los The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) en la Conferencia de la ONU sobre Desarrollo Sostenible de Río de Janeiro. Poco a poco, se ha ido estableciendo un consenso en torno a los criterios de información extrafinanciera. Los inversores socialmente responsables utilizan criterios medioambientales, sociales y de gobernanza Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) para seleccionar posibles inversiones.
En 2020, la Comisión Europea presenta una serie de propuestas legislativas para adecuar sus políticas al objetivo de reducción neta de emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero fijado en el plan de objetivos climáticos para 2030 y consagrado en la legislación de la UE.
En 2021, la Comisión adopta las propuestas legislativas "Fit for 55", que abarcan una amplia gama de ámbitos políticos, como el clima, la energía, el transporte y la fiscalidad, y establecen los medios por los que la Comisión alcanzará su objetivo actualizado para 2030 en términos reales.
Se trata ahora de contribuir al objetivo de neutralidad climática de la UE para 2050, establecido en el "European Green Deal". Los objetivos son estimular la creación de empleos verdes, mantener el récord de la UE en reducción de emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero, el crecimiento económico y garantizar que la transición sea justa y no deje a nadie atrás.
MISSION
En el resto del mundo seguirán otras normas que cambiarán profundamente el comercio mundial, la forma de hacer negocios y todo el proceso de producción.
La misión de damtower y sus fondadores no es reinventar las leyes o interpretarlas, sino compartirlas con tantas personas como puedan y utilizarlas como una instrumento de desarrollo visible y mensurable para todos.

He has a dual skill set as a recognised expert and a successful developer. His passion for the future led him to join Paul in his sustainable project. The damtower project is a project that combines certification and recognition. Benoit has been working in this field for 30 years, and is in certification recognised as a global expert. The damtower project requires an excellent knowledge of several technical subjects: Certification, ESG, SDG, employee engagement, communication and employer Brand, workshop organisation, but also Digital and data analysis. Benoit has been doing this for the last 10 years. He is also a technology and innovation junkie..
Paul Montet is a 200% citizen of the world. He is lucky to have two nationalities being 100% French and 100% Dutch. Since his childhood, he's very careful for others and being careful for others drives him to be careful for the entire world ! Who isn't an idealist at 16?
Later, his first study topic has oriented him toward Water Management. And not anywhere, in a country where 60% of the territory is under the sea level: the Netherlands. Thanks to an Honours program he has traveled in South-East Asia to study urban farming and seeds valorisation. He is actually engaged in a Master of Sustainability Management at ESCP Paris and Berlin.
