CONCEPT NOTE

Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) data has emerged as a pivotal tool in evaluating companies’ sustainability performance, assessing their impact on the environment, societal relationships, and governance structures. This data guides stakeholders, including investors and organizations, in making ethically aligned decisions, fostering a more sustainable and responsible approach to business. The goal of ESG is to capture all the non-financial risks and opportunities inherent to a company's day to day activities. The adoption of frameworks from organizations like GRI, SASB, and TCFD ensures standardized assessment, fostering consistency across diverse industries.

Despite the growing prominence of ESG considerations, integrating sustainability into business practices presents multifaceted challenges. The collaborative efforts of businesses, regulators, and standard-setting bodies are essential in developing consistent metrics and fostering a cultural shift toward sustainability. In the dynamic landscape of responsible business practices, the intricate interplay between ESG data, integration challenges, and driving factors underscores the pivotal role of sustainability in shaping a resilient and ethical future for businesses.

This Conclave is a platform, conceptualized to create opportunities for learning and sharing knowledge among the members, directors and organizations revolving around the most happening theme of ‘ESG” with special focus on the role of the boards, stakeholders spanning across diversified sectors. The above Conclave would explore the Business, Industries & Government inputs on achieving the sustainability report based on the best business ESG practices. It would be a major networking event of the year to evolve a suitable model to attain the above vision, with expected participation of organisations and around 100+ Business Leaders, Industrialists, Policy Makers, Governance and Professionals from all over the region.

INVITED DELEGATES

Government & Industry Representatives, Diplomats, Manufacturers, Trade Commissioners & Associations Councils, IOD Members
Chamber of Commerce and people interested in the ESG Concept.
