Example 2: Social Sciences

For this project, a local medical company is working with Vanderbilt University researchers to improve their performance across Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG).

The Vanderbilt team will be led by an Environmental Science professor and a Sociology professor from Vanderbilt University, one postdoc researcher from the Vanderbilt University Data Science Institute, one Owen MBA student, and several medical students. They will seek assistance on their sustainability journey by joining the Climate Innovation Accelerator (CIA) program at the Wond’ry.

The overarching goal will be for the researchers to test the technology that they are developing to establish an internal ESG score for medical supply companies.
