I am looking to get access to ESG related deal flow. Does anyone know of good sources? For those who are unfamiliar with ESG, it stands for Environment, Social, and Governance. ESG friendly companies incorporate best practices in all three areas.

My view on it is, if you think ESG is important, acquire any company and operate it in a more ESG-friendly way. Consider getting it B-Corp certified. Pay good wages. Purchase renewable energy. I think trying to buy an ESG company--a very vague term--is an impractically small lens with a squirrely enough definition that would make it hard to complete any acquisition.

@samir I was about to ask the same thing. I am interested in lower middle market ESG related companies. Fir me I have recently been trying to find or attend some ESG related conferences, I have only recently started this so, cannot currently speak to how effective this will be.
