Entrepreneur's Climate Awareness - Is it Existent?
Businesses start-ups focuses primarily on creating a good customer base, sufficient equity and be able to successfully have a positive result during the first year of the business operation. However, it is easy for a company's environmental work to fall in the background. _________________
Businesses start-ups focuses primarily on creating a good customer base, sufficient equity and be able to successfully have a positive result during the first year of the business operation. However, it is easy for a company's environmental work to fall in the background. Entrepreneurs and business start-ups' first priority is normally to create more capital, expand its customer base, choose the right business, keep track of costs, given the right to tax and accounting, maintaining a high quality, provide great service, etc. to name a few. Developing Environmental targets and strategy of a company at the start of ther business operation is not highly prioritised. "For us in ProQure it came naturally for us to focus on our environmental work and goals. Early in our business, we have designed and developed an environmental policy that is simple, realistic and inspiring. We are glad that we have already achieved these the targets during 2009 and we are already looking forward to the complete our environmental goals for 2010. Companies must take into account environmental concerns today to succeed long term." states Ryan Eriksson, Marketing and Sales Manager at ProQure (http://www.proqure.se). Nyföretagarcenter, Almi and other similar organizations focus primarily on capital seeking when they extend their support to entrepreneurs who want to start their own business. Hopefully these organizations will begin to support small business owner's in their pursuit of better environmental targets. With the climate debate on everyone's lips, the wish is that more and more start-up businesses begin early in developing theur environmental targets and strategy. However, it is not enough to have a policy on paper. Walk the talk - that is what counts.
