About Us
At the heart of modern business lies a challenge and an opportunity. As environmental and social pressures intensify, organisations are called to step up. Yet many leaders and teams grapple with where to begin, how to take action, and how to create lasting impact.
Founded in 2022 by Justin Cullen, Niall Collins, Anthony Quigley, and Brendan Nevin, ISS was created to tackle this challenge, empowering organisations with real-world knowledge and tools to drive meaningful, measurable change that boosts profitability and resilience.
Our suite of corporate sustainability training solutions is designed for accessibility and immediate application because sustainability cannot be confined to a single department or role. True innovation comes from within, when every individual in the organisation is equipped with the knowledge, skills, and mindset.
Accredited and built with flexibility in mind, our programmes deliver high-quality, practical learning that aligns with diverse business needs and busy schedules. By embedding sustainability into the very fabric of your business, you create a culture of innovation, reduce risk, cut costs, unlock new revenue streams, and future-proof your organisation.
