At GSBS, we deliver the GSBS Rating to a broad range of organisations, using both publicly available information or data actively provided to us by the organisations. While we value every organisation we assess, we especially recognise those taking the extra step to actively engage - sharing data, fostering transparency, and opening themselves to external scrutiny. Here is an overview of the organisations that have provided data for their rating, and we are proud to acknowledge their leadership, dedication, and trust in our process. It is a privilege to support and showcase their work.

"Sustainability is a process which means changing the way you run your business. Sustainability performance and initiatives must not only contribute to minimizing your impact on the environment and society, but also contribute to business goals.

To define a road map that helps us develop our sustainability strategic plan with this objective in mind, participating in benchmarks as GSBS has been of great help. It is not only a reporting tool, but a great management tool.

Scores are verified with a solid process and supported by evidence, what gives credibility to the results. It’s aligned with current EU regulation and most extended reporting standards, covers all material topics for the industry and sets a comparable framework for both internal and external stakeholders, and can helps defining ppriorities in the short and medium term."

The unique combination of millions of fans around the world

admiring athletes who are striving for glory and modern business organisations with significant global interdependencies, makes the professional sports industry nowadays one of the most influential industries of our time.

Together we are going to lead the way and unleash the potential to tackle the challenges of the 21st century, to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all, as well as protect the needs of future generations.
