Our story
Jesper Kring
CEO & Co-Founder
Valified
"When we founded Valified, our goal was clear: to direct significantly more capital toward companies working for a sustainable future. We saw ESG as a driver – not just for compliance, but for smarter and more value-creating business.
Today, we make ESG work simple, effective, and value-driven for companies and their partners. At the same time, we’ve built a financial infrastructure that enables banks, investors, and other financial players to integrate ESG into financing and investments – in a simple, transparent, and scalable way.
With Valified, ESG becomes a real business advantage that drives growth, financial competitiveness, and better access to capital – helping accelerate the sustainable transition."
