Closing Insights
Minimum was founded in 2020 by Freddie Green, Freddie Evans, and Chris Winchurch, whose backgrounds include time at Oxford University and Newton Europe, an operational problem-solving firm. The platform has attracted clients such as the Octopus Energy Group and Matterport. In 2023, Minimum also entered a partnership with Nasdaq to offer its software to listed companies preparing for mandatory climate disclosures. This was followed by recognition on Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies list for 2024.
Minimum is best suited for large organizations with complex ownership structures and significant value chains, particularly those facing major regulatory requirements such as CSRD in Europe or SEC rules in the US. The platform integrates with existing enterprise IT systems via API and can be combined with advisory services to support users through the disclosure process.
