Business
AtKisson has been working with sustainability in business since our founding in 1992. Back then, we were supporting the Neighborhood Business Council of Greater Seattle (one of our first clients). Now, we work with global companies and business associations on sustainability training, strategy, reporting and assessment. And we still work with small to medium size companies as well.
Many of our business client relationships are protected by confidentiality agreements, but we provide a number of recent client references below.
