About this event There is a rising expectation to integrate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into company strategy and decision-making. Small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) are increasingly aware of the benefits of integrating ESGs into their operations – especially as they aim to secure investment and seek export opportunities. With virtually every company being linked to another in some way, the ESG issues that impact one company will inevitably have an impact on the whole supply chain. Successful integration of ESG will lead to improved risk management, operational performance, reputation and employee engagement. Join us to learn more about ESG adoption, the benefits it offers, and the role it plays in supporting inclusive, sustainable growth in the transition to a low-carbon economy.
