Booost's New Sustainability Leadership Magazine

In September 2025, Booost Inc., headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, launched the "Sustainability Leadership Magazine"—an owned media platform dedicated to providing expert knowledge on sustainability management, bridging regulatory compliance and corporate value enhancement. CEO Hiroki Aoi aims to support companies’ sustainability transformations (SX) through this initiative.

The magazine targets leaders in prime-listed corporations along with stakeholders from corporate planning, finance, IT, investor relations, and sustainability sectors. It will elucidate the latest trends in regulations and sustainability transformation (SX) in depth. By focusing on proactive strategies rather than mere compliance, this media aims to furnish actionable insights that foster the enhancement of corporate value and stock prices.

Background of the Media Launch

As global sustainability regulations and disclosure standards grow more rigid, Japanese corporations face an urgent challenge to align with the SSBJ standards that will come into effect from the fiscal year ending March 2027. This mandates a gradual integration of financial and non-financial disclosures, thus making the SX push a pressing issue for corporations.

However, the complexities and rapid evolution of standards pose significant hurdles for these organizations to stay updated. Recognizing this challenge, Booost intends to share accumulated knowledge and insights from their SX support activities in large enterprises through this new media.

Unique Features of the Media

The magazine will address topics such as SSBJ standards, practical applications for disclosure, and strategies for enhancing corporate valuation. It aims to become a reliable resource for senior management and sustainability specialists, offering them pertinent information necessary for informed decision-making and effective internal proposals.

1. Expertise and Practical Relevance: The platform will tackle significant points required for SSBJ, CSRD, EUDR compliance, among others, providing information essential for management and sustainability practitioners.

2. Reliable Information Foundation: Articles will be penned by Booost’s in-house professionals, ensuring that quality insights are consistently available for reference.

3. Utilization of Diverse Knowledge Assets: In addition to articles, the platform will feature webinars, reports on international standards, and interviews, making the insights useful for internal corporate discussions.

Future Outlook

Booost aims to update the magazine bi-weekly with specialized articles and release original expert content monthly. Furthermore, dialogues with companies engaged in SX and timely updates on domestic and international regulatory changes will be increasingly emphasized. Through disseminating insights gathered from corporate engagements and daily industry research, Booost aspires to facilitate the practical implementation of sustainability management and contribute towards a sustainable society.

Addressing the Sustainability 2026 Challenge: "Japan as a Global Leader in SX"

Currently, numerous firms face the "Sustainability 2026 Problem"—a pressing concern regarding mandatory sustainability-related financial disclosures. Due to delays and insufficient awareness, many companies risk a decline in corporate value. To tackle this issue and enhance Japanese corporations' presence on the global stage, Booost established the "Japan as a Global Leader in SX" project in November 2024. This initiative conducts events and support measures for both practical staff and executives alike.
