Notes to editors
Methodology:
This report is based on a global online survey conducted since COP27, alongside business founders, owners, and senior managers in decision-making roles related to sustainability, finance, or operations. Data collection was carried out via an online questionnaire, targeting businesses with fewer than 250 employees. The survey was conducted in Azerbaijan, the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, Germany, France, Spain, Poland, Brazil, South Africa, Thailand, Kenya, Morocco, Senegal, Ecuador and Indonesia.
The survey gathered responses from a total sample of 8,250 SMEs across these markets. A further deep dive was conducted with a sub-sample of 1,000 SMEs, specifically targeting businesses already engaged in environmental reporting. This sample was also increased to include medium-sized enterprises (up to 1,000 employees) for more comprehensive insights.
