London, UK – 28th January 2026 – Sweep, the leading enterprise sustainability intelligence platform, today announced the appointment of Patrick de Cambourg, outgoing Chair of the EFRAG Sustainability Reporting Board, as Senior Adviser. This makes Sweep the only major ESG software provider with direct access to insights from one of the architects of Europe’s sustainability reporting standards. 

As the European Union’s CSRD requirements expand to major European companies, and influence sustainability reporting frameworks globally, de Cambourg’s expertise gives Sweep customers a decisive advantage: critical regulatory intelligence to effectively align sustainability management with reporting obligations.

“Patrick is one of the most influential figures in global sustainability reporting. His work is setting the template for mandatory ESG disclosures worldwide,” said Rachel Delacour, CEO and co-founder of Sweep. ” This provides our customers with unique expertise: a platform informed by a regulatory expert himself. As companies face the most comprehensive reporting requirements in history, that’s not just an advantage, it’s essential.”

“Sweep excels at managing the depth and breadth of data needed to turn sustainability reporting into a strategic asset aligned with CSRD and ESRS goals,” said Patrick de Cambourg. “What attracted me is Sweep’s vision: sustainability data should drive business decisions, not just tick compliance boxes. It’s about converting ESG insights into competitive advantage and long-term value, as companies execute their transition strategies.”

Patrick de Cambourg most recently (2020-2025) led the EFRAG task forces on sustainability reporting standards, and served as the first Chair of the EFRAG Sustainability Reporting Board for a three-year mandate. He played a critical role in developing the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), including the simplified reporting standards currently under European Commission review.

Previously, he spent seven years as President of France’s Autorité des normes comptables (ANC – Accounting Standards Authority), which included serving as a board member of both the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF – Financial Markets Authority) and the Autorité de contrôle prudentiel et de résolution (ACPR – Prudential Control Authority).

Over his 40-year career with the Mazars Group (now ForvisMazars), he served as Senior Partner for three decades and was appointed Honorary President. He holds degrees in political sciences from Sciences Po Paris and in public and business law from Paris-Panthéon-Assas University. He is a French Expert Comptable (Certified Chartered Accountant).
