ESG is not something “out there” or only discussed in political environments. ESG (environmental, social, governance) is here and is shaping the way businesses interact with each other and with customers. Kai Gray and his parters run Motive ESG. They work with businesses to improve their ESG scores, thereby enabling them to compete for business with some of the nation’s defense contractors, major manufacturers, building contractors and such. Kai predicts ESG will become a filter through which the next generation invests money and even buys product at the grocery store.

In July 2020, Kai and his brother Taylor founded their start-up called , which helps other companies report on their ESG commitments. They hope Motive can tackle the corporate-side causes of environmental issues as they believe this is the biggest driver of climate change, and I think I believe this too.
