Castik Capital hosts inaugural ESG Roundtable

10.10.2025

We were delighted to host our first in-person ESG Roundtable at Castik’s Luxembourg office last week, led by our ESG Manager, Donata Haque-Bernutz, and attended by ESG representatives from across our portfolio companies. The event provided a valuable opportunity for our ESG leads to come together in a wonderfully collaborative, knowledge-sharing environment. Together, we explored how ESG can move beyond risk management to become a driver of value creation.

We were delighted to include presentations from two of our portfolio companies:

  • AIDER, a Norwegian accountancy firm with a growing ESG consulting service line, presented on how to operationalise CSRD requirements
  • TBAuction, one of Europe’s leading online auction platforms for second-hand and used goods, presented a case study on avoided emissions based on work they have undertaken to evidence their positive impact downsream

Other topics discussed, included:

  • the evolving regulatory landscape
  • carbon management and Net Zero planning with science-based targets
  • practical approaches to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

It was fantastic to welcome everyone to this new initiative, and we look forward to continuing the rich discussions at future events.
