    ESG, biodiversity and communication: value for the company

    Businesses are facing increasing pressure for timely ESG reporting. Regulations such as the CSRD and ESRS (particularly E4 on biodiversity), along with the European Taxonomy, require measurement and communication of environmental impact.

    The biodiversity crisis is accelerating: IPBES data indicates a 30% decline in bee colonies in Europe over the last decade. 75% of global food crops depend on pollinators: their loss poses a systemic risk to food security and ecosystems.

    Generic sustainability projects are no longer sufficient. Initiatives need to be measurable, communicable, and verifiable, capable of demonstrating a real impact.

    "Adopt a Corporate Beehive" by 3Bee addresses this need: direct impact, objective data, and authentic storytelling of commitment. To understand the regulatory obligations, see the guide to CSRD requirements.

    Adopted beehives monitored with 3Bee sensors and technology

    The "Adopt a Corporate Hive" service by 3Bee offers a tangible approach to sustainability: the company adopts one or more hives, managed by over 200 beekeepers who are partners of the 3Bee network across Italy.

    Each hive is equipped with 3Bee's proprietary IoT technology. The sensors measure the weight, temperature, humidity, and acoustic activity of the colony, providing an objective overview of the pollinators' wellbeing and the impact generated.

    The data is fed into the 3Bee platform, where the company receives:
    • Interactive dashboards and sustainability reports for a measurable impact.
    • Adoption certificate and ready-to-use ESG communication content.
    • 100% Italian honey customised with the company brand, ideal as a gift.
    It is possible to choose the location and integrate the project with team building activities. See also an urban use case: urban hive in the company.

    Measurable impact, engagement, and ESG KPIs. Call to action

    The "Adopt a Corporate Hive" service by 3Bee generates measurable ESG KPIs: number of hives adopted, kilograms of honey produced, hectares of monitored land, and pollinated plant species. Scientific data that can be used in sustainability reports and for compliance with the CSRD.

    The project activates tangible internal engagement: dedicated newsletters, events, and personalised content create a continuous narrative channel that involves teams on a real topic, with participation rates higher than those of generic ESG initiatives.

    Externally, over 1500 brand partners of 3Bee leverage these data and authentic storytelling for integrated reporting, ESG campaigns, and communication with customers, investors, and media.
