Bridge Industrial Launches ESG Program 

Bridge Industrial has formed an environmental, social, governance (ESG) program and is working with ESG consultancy firm Verdani Partners to ensure the smooth integration of the newly established program throughout the company’s corporate culture. In establishing the program, Bridge aims to create lasting value through sustainability. 

To help spearhead the program, Bridge promoted Francesca De Amicis to the firm’s VP of operations and sustainability. In this role, Francesca will be responsible for the implementation of policies and strategies which support and drive the organization’s ESG goals and will facilitate coordination between Bridge and Verdani. 

“We are impressed with Verdani’s track record of developing industry leading ESG programs for commercial real estate portfolios,” said De Amicis. “At Bridge, we want to demonstrate ESG leadership, and with Verdani’s partnership, we feel confident that we can make significant strides toward reaching net zero emissions and advancing decarbonization efforts in the industrial sector.”
