Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company has been awarded the “Excellence in Product Innovation” at the InsurInnovator Connect Asia Awards 2026 for its ESG Evaluation Service, powered by Rimm Japan’s AI-powered ESG platform. The award recognises the service’s innovative approach to supporting sustainability adoption and ESG disclosure among businesses, particularly across Japan’s regional economy.
As global sustainability reporting continues to evolve, with increasing alignment to frameworks such as ISSB (IFRS S1/S2) and SSBJ, organisations of all sizes are facing growing pressure to disclose non-financial information. However, many companies, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, continue to face key challenges including limited internal expertise, unclear implementation pathways and high operational workloads.
To address these challenges, Meiji Yasuda developed its ESG Evaluation Service as part of its broader “Local Revitalisation Project”. Built on Rimm Japan’s ESG technology, the service enables companies to assess, manage and improve their sustainability performance through a structured and accessible approach.
The ESG Evaluation Service provides a comprehensive framework that includes ESG scoring and data visualisation, detailed evaluation reports with clear improvement actions, and access to solution providers to support ongoing sustainability efforts. By leveraging Rimm’s proprietary evaluation logic, the platform delivers tailored insights that reflect each company’s unique operational context.
The award highlights the service’s role in driving measurable impact beyond traditional insurance offerings, supporting companies in advancing their SDG initiatives while strengthening long-term, sustainable growth.
Looking ahead, Meiji Yasuda plans to further expand and enhance its ESG services to deepen support for regional businesses. In parallel, Rimm Japan will continue to advance its ESG disclosure capabilities, helping organisations navigate evolving global frameworks including SSBJ, CSRD and TCFD, while reducing reporting complexity and improving data accuracy.
This milestone reflects Rimm’s continued commitment to making sustainability actionable, accessible and scalable, empowering organisations to turn ESG into measurable business value.
