The study examines the forward-thinking and innovative ideas of Sándor Kopátsy that align well with the pillars of the increasingly prevalent ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) framework, anticipating their time. During the research, document analysis was employed, incorporating not only Kopátsy's already published studies but also, uniquely, the unpublished manuscripts found in the digital archive of the Sándor Kopátsy Knowledge Center, as well. Kopátsy's starting point was his close relationship to nature, asserting that nature does exist for humanity. He claimed, that in a society harmonized with nature, people can be more productive, ethical, and achieve a higher cultural level. It is crutial, thus quality workforce, even without abundant capital or raw materials, can position a country at the forefront, parallel to the conscientious and realistically executed use of alternative energy sources.
