Sustainable Business

"It feels rewarding to be able to make our small contribution to making the planet a little better."

Since the start, Evident Life has measured its emissions annually, encouraged employees to cycle, walk, and use public transport, and embraced digital ways of working to minimise paper consumption.

Evident Life is a young and completely digital life insurance company with a business idea that focuses on digital innovation, data-driven operations, and preventive health measures.

CEO Michaela Bruneheim shares that their goal was to "do it right from the start" by minimizing their carbon footprint and maintaining environmentally and socially sustainable business practices.

Evident Life is committed to several of the UN's global sustainability goals, especially goals 3, 5, 8, and 12. This includes measures such as encouraging employees to use bicycles, walking and public transport, and in their digital business model, they continuously strive for energy-efficient technology.

As the business operates digitally, paper consumption is also kept to a minimum.

Gender equality is also a core aspect of their operations, with an aim for balance in gender distribution both operationally and at the board level. Flexibility in working hours and location is part of their corporate culture, which they see as crucial to maintaining a healthy balance in life for their employees, which in turn contributes to the company's long-term success and sustainability.

Annual climate analysis

Evident Life conducts an annual climate analysis with GoClimate and also funds climate projects selected by employee vote. This funding contributes to climate action outside the company and does not reduce Evident Life’s own emissions.

Allowing employees to vote on which projects receive funding makes climate financing more engaging, which Bruneheim describes as a meaningful way to contribute to a better planet.

"It feels rewarding to be able to make our small contribution to making the planet a little better", says Michaela Bruneheim.
