What began as a collaboration among a small group of GPs and LPs has grown into a global initiative representing more than 500 investors and providing sustainability insights from approximately 9,000 portfolio companies. Drawing on the EDCI benchmark, Ben highlights where private companies are leading, where gaps remain, and how performance evolves over the ownership period.
