Lobbying Governance

PeptiDream provides only limited insight into how it governs climate-related lobbying and policy engagement. The sole explicit reference is its affirmation that it has “Does your organization have a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement?[…]Yes,” which signals an intention to align its external advocacy with Paris-aligned objectives. Beyond this high-level commitment, the company’s published sustainability materials focus on general climate governance— for example, noting that “PeptiDream’s CFO in charge of environmental risks serves as a member of the Sustainability and Governance Committee… and is responsible for implementing and driving PeptiDream’s sustainability strategy, including climate-related issues,” and that the Board “receives progress reports… and monitors them.” However, none of these disclosures describe how lobbying or public-policy engagement is reviewed, approved, or monitored, nor do they identify any individual or committee explicitly tasked with ensuring that direct or indirect lobbying is consistent with the company’s climate goals. There is also no discussion of trade-association alignment, escalation procedures, or reporting on lobbying activities. Consequently, while the Paris-alignment commitment indicates some awareness of responsible engagement, the absence of concrete processes, oversight structures, or disclosures specific to lobbying shows that PeptiDream’s lobbying governance remains largely undeveloped and lacks transparency.
