Why EcoVadis is more than a badge; It’s a catalyst for change

Richard Eglon, CMO at Nebula Global Services, explains what gaining an EcoVadis rating really means

After speaking with numerous sustainability and ESG leaders across the technology market, as well as my peers on the CRN Sustainability in Tech Advisory Board, it’s clear that EcoVadis is emerging as a powerful enabler for building a stronger, more transparent value chain.

It provides a common language for ESG performance, helping businesses align with global standards while driving meaningful impact across the supply ecosystem.

For companies like Nebula Global Services, it’s not just a framework, it’s a strategic lever for growth, trust, and long-term resilience.

This insight has only reinforced our own approach. At Nebula Global Services, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword, it’s a strategic imperative. As a global IT channel services provider operating within a complex ecosystem of resellers, MSPs, distributors, and service partners, we understand the growing importance of environmental, social, and governance (ESG)performance.

That’s why I’m proud to share that Nebula has achieved the EcoVadis Committed status, marking a major milestone in our sustainability journey.

EcoVadis is one of the world’s most trusted providers of business sustainability ratings, assessing over 130,000 companies across 180 countries and 220 industries. Their rigorous evaluation spans four key areas: environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.

With an overall score of 60 out of 100, Nebula now ranks above or equal to 60 per cent of all relevant companies assessed, a strong starting point that reflects our values and the systems we’ve put in place to drive responsible growth.

However, this certification is more than just a badge. It’s a reflection of our commitment to transparency, continuous improvement, and long-term impact. Being benchmarked against a global network gives us a clear view of where we stand and where we can improve. It also enables us to share our sustainability credentials with partners who rely on the EcoVadis framework to assess ESG performance across the supply chain.

In today’s fast-evolving technology channel, sustainability is becoming a key differentiator.

Customers and regulators alike are demanding more accountability, and businesses that can demonstrate measurable ESG credentials are better positioned to win trust and drive growth.

The EcoVadis accreditation provides Nebula with a trusted, evidence-based framework to do just that.

As we continue to innovate and expand our portfolio of global services, sustainability will remain at the heart of our strategy. With the momentum we’ve built and the initiatives already in motion, we’re confident we’ll ascend to the next tier in our upcoming EcoVadis assessment.

However, we believe this milestone is more than a marker, it’s a launchpad. It signals the start of a bold, long-term commitment to playing our small part in shaping a smarter, greener future for the global IT channel.
