At Gamification+, we’re proud to congratulate our client Circlr.io for being recognized by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) in The Climate Tech Forecast: “Why Are We Depreciating the Planet?“. Circlr.io has not only been named a standout climate tech innovator but has also been selected as a key case study, showcasing how finance professionals can drive environmental impact.


🔍 What the ACCA Report Reveals

  • Momentum in Climate Tech: According to the ACCA, two‐thirds (66%) of organisations already view climate technologies as essential—or expect them to become so—with 21% already investing and another 21% planning to do so in the next two to three years.
  • Opportunity and Challenge: Despite the imperative, many organisations face hurdles—72% struggle with fragmented or incomplete data, while 15% can’t effectively measure ROI.
  • Accountancy at the Core: The report underscores how finance teams and accountants are critical for embedding climate-tech investment into company strategy and reporting.

The ACCA report suggests that traditional financial tools—like asset depreciation—should be adapted to reflect environmental impact. Instead of ignoring ecological costs, we need to rethink how we value the planet’s resources and stop treating them as endlessly expendable.

Circlr.io is highlighted in this context as an exemplar of innovative climate tech: a solution that aligns fiscal strategy, accounting rigor, and measurable sustainability outcomes. It demonstrates how smart tech meets smart finance to create meaningful environmental ROI.


🌟 Circlr.io: Innovating Circularity & Transparency

While the report focuses on ACCA’s strategic framework, Circlr.io embodies it in action:

  • It’s helping organisations build circular economy models, reducing waste and extending asset life.
  • It enables companies to track environmental impact, integrate ESG considerations, and report clearly.
  • It demonstrates how financial controls, lifecycle analysis, and tech can merge to improve both planet and profit.

Together, these innovations position Circlr.io as a template for how climate technology can be deployed, measured, and valued—exactly as ACCA recommends to meet today’s climate and financial challenges.


🥂 Join Us in Celebrating!

We’re honoured to see Circlr.io celebrated by the ACCA—an international authority in finance and sustainability—alongside other global innovators. This recognition confirms:

  1. The global relevance of their technology in corporate sustainability strategies.
  2. The power of combining fintech, ESG, and circularity for measurable impact.
  3. The leadership role of finance professionals in advancing climate solutions.
