How it Works

THRIVE Platform is a unique first-of-a-kind world-class online modeling platform aimed at informing and guiding humanity towards thrivability. It achieves this by providing context-based performance measures linked to strategy, e.g. business model as informed by the sciences. Using big data analytics and advanced machine learning techniques, it utilizes sense-making algorithms to assess performance within norms, relative to thresholds and allocation of available resources.

THRIVE Platform measures the impact of strategy changes by enterprises, cities and governments. It quantitatively allows a user to freely tinker with settings, levers and sliders, to see the effect on society and the environment. Using historical data, and a sophisticated backcasting system, and extensive formula engine, THRIVE platform allows a user to simulate pending outcomes, based on the actual datasets and supported science. For instance, what is the impact of a one-degree rise in temperature, what is the impact of phasing out fossil fuels, what if food waste was reduced by ten per cent, what if new legislation demanded reduction in pollution in the waterways, etc? 

As an agnostic platform, it supports many of the commonly available taxa systems for its material topic selection, such as GRI, SDGs, WBAs etc. THRIVE Platform adopts a strong sustainability stance, and thus unlike many other attempts, it does not invite nor allow for substitution or monetization of resources. Furthermore, it is an integrated and scale-linked service providing free guidance to users at all levels rather than acting as simply a repository.

THRIVE Platform serves consumers who are wishing to make more informed and sustainable decisions, business leaders who are desiring to excel above their peers, and policymakers who are looking to experiment with “What-if” scenarios for a more prosperous society. Moreover, business analysts and consultants can quantitatively measure and thus encourage their clients to pursue more sustainable outcomes.
