Turning sustainability into measurable business value.
Scope4 Impact is an Istanbul-based sustainability consultancy. We support companies across the entire journey: shaping strategy, measuring performance, reporting transparently and creating real, lasting impact.
Sustainability is no longer optional. Regulations are tightening, investors and customers expect transparency, and access to finance increasingly depends on ESG performance. Yet many companies, especially SMEs without a dedicated sustainability team, don’t know where to start. That’s where we come in.
Nice to meet you!

Merve Cansın Kaplan
Founder and CEOWorking where finance, strategy and sustainability meet, she translates companies’ sustainability ambitions into the language investors and lenders understand.
Merve Cansın Kaplan is the Founder and CEO of Scope4 Impact. Her career has been built where finance, strategy and sustainability intersect, and she specialises in aligning companies’ sustainability performance with the expectations of investors, lenders and other stakeholders.
Her exposure to capital markets began in investor relations at SOCAR and Petkim, leading companies in the energy and petrochemicals sector. There she saw first-hand how investors assess companies, and how ESG performance and transparent reporting shape corporate value.
She then spent about three and a half years at Tat Gıda, leading the Sustainability, Strategy and Corporate Communications functions and reporting directly to the Chairman of the Board. In this role she managed the full cycle, from shaping the sustainability strategy to preparing the company’s sustainability reports and leading corporate communications.
In 2026 she founded Scope4 Impact to bring this large-company experience within reach of growing businesses, particularly those without an in-house sustainability team. Today she advises companies on sustainable finance, strategy and reporting, linking sustainability projects to access to finance and building roadmaps that are practical and measurable.
