Floodlight in a Nutshell

Relying on rollup scores and ratings hides the true story. We are scientists and academics with published, peer-reviewed approaches to provide transparent, detailed data feeds that cut through the greenwashing.

We use big data from satellites, drones, census, surveys, social media, and other alternative data sources to provide integrative intelligence and insights around ESG thematic and material issues. With over 1000 data sets, these include, health and wellness, AI automation, COVID recovery, social justice, digital divide, education opportunity gap, water quality, green energy transition, climate scenarios, emissions, gender and race gaps, etc. Primary coverage is spatial locations, geographies, and equities globally.

On a global scale, we have substantial data products related to UN SDGs related to food security, gender, biodiversity, energy, and sustainable cities.

Data Offering

Floodlight builds rigorous, science-driven data sets on thematic issues around ESG concerns for locations (such as countries, zip codes), sectors (such as oil & gas), and businesses (such as Apple/AAPL). These include Environmental (ex. hazardous wastes) to assess impact and risks, Social (ex. gender equity) to assess human resource management/impact, and Governance (ex: tax impact) to assess management outlooks.

Use Cases

Companies who voluntarily self-report their ESG issues strategically omit concerning issues–that’s why Oil & Gas companies look Green when you utilize typical ESG ratings data.

If you rely solely on ratings data (cough cough Bloomberg) , then you may be missing the full picture.

Analysts utilize our data to cut through the greenwashing to better measure performance and impact aligning with their strategic goals. We provide a 3rd-party audit of data from external sources triangulated with reports to provide a 360 view of the ESG landscape.

Specific customers include portfolio managers, institutional investors, CFAs, etc., who routinely analyze ESG data for their decision making.

Other customers include risk analysis for insurance and reinsurance, municipal management/planning, and science/research.
