Invest Europe has launched its updated, public ESG Reporting Template. The consolidated template, which is now also machine-readable, gives private equity and venture capital LPs and GPs an optimised tool to report ESG metrics, policies and practices. In order to address the current divergence in ESG reporting requirements and questionnaires, the updated template was developed in close cooperation with VentureESG and with the deep and active engagement of key European LPs.

Why do private equity and venture capital-backed companies benefit from better performance on trademark and patent filings? “Innovation is at the beating heart of successful companies, and by extension the lifeblood of growing economies. With its ability to help companies develop and commercialise innovation, private equity and venture capital can offer a key to unlock many of the challenges Europe faces.” - Eric de Montgolfier, Invest Europe. “Our collaborative study reveals the undeniable importance of IP rights in shaping a company's future and its appeal to investors.
