About the Foundation

Green Industry Foundation (GIF) is a think tank dedicated to education in sustainable development, ESG management, and the climate transformation of Poland and Europe. Our team brings together experienced experts and passionate sustainability professionals with extensive backgrounds in industry and strategic consulting. We support the transformation of the Polish economy in line with the European Green Deal by helping industries develop innovative, climate-resilient business models based on new technologies and effective management practices.

GIF promotes international cooperation, synergy, and integration in the field of sustainable development by delivering projects in partnership with organizations across Europe and beyond.
The Foundation pursues its mission through social research, analyses, reports, and legal and economic expert studies focused on sustainability management and climate transformation.
Our team of experts provides comprehensive support to organizations in preparing sustainability reports in accordance with international standards, including GRI, IIRC, and ESRS. We also assist companies in developing ESG strategies with a strong focus on climate governance, preparing for external ESG ratings, and securing green financing.
GIF has a proven track record of obtaining external funding, including European funds, to support the Foundation's mission and projects.
The Foundation collaborates with national and local government authorities, international organizations, non-governmental organizations, and civil society institutions. We organize and participate in conferences, seminars, and professional events in Poland and abroad.
