Gprnt has unveiled the world’s first nationwide utility for sustainability reporting, enabling Singapore-based companies to automatically generate their emissions data using Corppass. Supported by Ant International and MUFG Bank, this initiative marks a significant step in Singapore’s ambition to lead in green finance and digital ESG infrastructure. The platform allows companies to access their utilities data, such as water and electricity consumption, and convert it into sustainability metrics at no cost.
The launch of Gprnt is a pivotal development for Singapore’s digital sustainability infrastructure. By integrating with the Government Technology Agency of Singapore’s Myinfo business service, companies can securely retrieve data and simplify their sustainability disclosures. This is particularly beneficial for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which can leverage these disclosures to access sustainable finance and participate in green procurement schemes.
Ravi Menon, Chairman of the GFTN Board of Directors, highlighted the platform’s potential: “Gprnt is a game-changer for Singapore companies’ sustainability reporting. High-integrity sustainability data is critical for businesses to formulate effective transition plans for decarbonisation.”
Gprnt has also completed a seed funding round, raising $4.62m (S$6m) to enhance its digital infrastructure and AI capabilities. The funds will accelerate the onboarding of partners in Singapore and across the region. Ant International and MUFG Bank are integrating Gprnt into their ecosystems to support firms with sustainability disclosures and unlock new opportunities.
Looking ahead, Gprnt plans to expand its services across Asia, introducing innovations such as a sustainability marketplace and support for Scope 3 supply chain reporting. This initiative aims to empower stakeholders across the value chain towards practical climate action.
