“As the world has grown more concerned with combatting widespread issues like climate change and social injustice, the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) movement has gained momentum to ensure businesses are doing their part, by transparently reporting to investors and stakeholders their positive and negative impacts on the environment and society,” says KBS CEO Marc DeLuca.
The World Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) Summit will magnify the ground reality and allow all stakeholders to urge for methodologies to minimize or evade carbon emissions through a practical approach. Focusing on insightful sessions, valuable discussions, and fruitful networking to redefine the current approach and adopt the most impactful ways of incorporating ESG on priority.
ESG has become a game changer for many companies as the world of business pivots towards sustainability for their survival. Managing ESG issues is critical for public and private sector globally. Not only are investors, customers, and other stakeholders demanding lower carbon emissions, but also organizations that are not taking a holistic approach to sustainability will also fall behind. In this global Summit, best practices to identify, measure, report on and manage ESG and climate-related risks will be discussed and those attending will hear practical lessons which can immediately be applied in their organizations.
High-level speakers will engage in insightful keynotes, panel discussions and interactive networking sessions with a focus on defining opportunities and commitments for supporting ESG through business, investment, and cross-sector collaboration.
