Our vision
Our vision is to regenerate the planet’s health, resources, and well-being.
About Telesto Strategy
Telesto Strategy was founded in May 2020 on the premise that we can — and must — take action to help solve the world’s greatest problems.
We partner to support business leaders as they begin to navigate their ESG and sustainability journeys with the goal of elevating these questions to corporate strategy and business growth. With increasing complexity around ESG and sustainability topics, we find that leaders lack the resources needed to simplify this transition and to have the meaningful impact they are counting on. That’s where we come in.
We offer a variety of specific ESG and sustainability growth solutions, whether they are related to net-zero planning, materiality assessments, ESG metrics, or simply having a dedicated team to make your ESG program come to life.
Our vision is global, and our roots are local to the beautiful city of Chicago. We look to partner with organizations from all phases of maturity, geographies, and industries. We recognize that to regenerate the planet, it will take all of us working together.
We believe that purpose drives profit, and the time to act is now.
Our Mission
Our dual mission:
Reframe how businesses, organizations and countries achieve growth
Redirect corporate strategy to solve for the biggest challenges of our time while delivering a positive ROI
Our Name
Named for space and for the seas, the promise of Telesto is vast and enduring. We looked to nature for inspiration and found it in one of Saturn’s moons and a Greek Ocean Goddess.
The promise of Telesto drives us every day to think more courageously and act more boldly. The promise of Telesto reminds us there is always more to explore and always room to grow.

Where We Work
With a founding history in Chicago and a global vision to regenerate the planet, we support teams across the world.
Our Founding
In the early stages of the pandemic, Telesto was founded by a small, inspired team in May 2020 with the focus of contributing to a global effort to elevate Sustainability, ESG and circularity to modernize strategies to business and organizational growth.
We are proud to be a woman-owned business.
Partnerships
We seek to partner with many types of organizations working towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and the global effort to regenerate the planet. We realize to accomplish something so broad and complex, it will take the best thinking and doing from a myriad of partners.
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. We choose to go far. Let’s go together.
