#Sustainability regulations are on the horizon, and #middlemarket companies are already taking action. In the U.S. and Canada, businesses are positioning themselves to meet regulatory demands, even as some final rules have yet to be determined. “This is a big shift. Ten years ago, sustainability was seen as something that a few niche businesses would participate in, and others may not have paid much attention. Today, that’s no longer the case,” says Tu Nguyen, PhD, our economist. Staff training is at the forefront of these efforts, while technology integration will play a critical role in ensuring long-term success.
