Green Spark Group & Sustainable Production News
In a strategic move to expand our touchpoint across the entertainment value chain, we are thrilled to welcome Nick Grimm and Peter Carellini to the Green Spark Group team.
Green Spark Group is now officially a certified B Corporation! We are incredibly proud of our overall B Impact score of 97, a reflection of all the hard work Green Spark Group has done for the past 10 years. This certification is a testament to our dedication to the highest standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.
Sustainable production is about changing behaviors, practices and outcomes. It requires more than a series of tactics, or a lengthy checklist; it requires a systemic approach, one that considers internal and external factors, and sets a series of goals that everyone can work towards.
At Green Spark Group, we have spent time reflecting on our own company’s social handprint, environmental footprint and approach to governance so that we may strive to serve our clients well, keep improving our operations and clearly define our own carbon emissions. Our 2023 annual report is a summary of this work.
