FfE Sustainability Management Network: Shaping sustainability together – Practical, connected, future-oriented

CSRD, VSME, CSDDD or ESPR – European sustainability regulation is in constant flux. Omnibus adjustments, revised standards such as the GHG Protocol, and new requirements make it increasingly challenging for companies to keep track, correctly assess developments, and set priorities: What is relevant for my company? And how can I implement the requirements in a practical and efficient way?

To address these questions, FfE is launching the Sustainability Management Network. The new network will start in April 2026 and builds on the already successfully implemented FfE sustainability reporting network. The content of the network will be defined jointly with all participants in order to tailor it to your needs and to current developments.

Possible workshop topics include, in addition to sustainability reporting (VSME, CSRD), other regulatory requirements (ESPR, Empowering Consumers Directive), relevant ISO standards (e.g., 26000), ESG data management, climate strategy and decarbonisation (GHG, SBTi), as well as supply chain–related issues.

In our network, you will systematically expand your knowledge of ESG topics while staying close to current regulatory developments. Through expert insights, professional exchange, and hands-on workshops, you will gain approaches that prove effective in day-to-day business. At the same time, you benefit from shared learning processes and synergies that significantly reduce the effort for all involved. This creates a framework in which you are well-prepared and professionally empowered to meet the current and future challenges of sustainability management in your company.

Further information about the Sustainability Management Network is available via the download link and at our non-binding, free kick-off meeting on February 4, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. To register, simply send us a short email at lspanagel@ffe.de. If you are interested or have further questions, please contact Sofia Haas or Leon Spanagel.
