CTP 2: Extracting Real Value and Impact from ESG

Current Topics
As environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles become more ingrained in corporate governance, the challenge for board directors is no longer just about compliance but about extracting real value and impact from these initiatives. In Singapore’s rapidly evolving landscape, ESG is increasingly tied to corporate reputation and financial performance. Board directors must lead the charge in integrating ESG into the core business strategy, ensuring their efforts drive tangible results. SID, in collaboration with Criticaleye, presents this virtual roundtable where we explore how boards can build an effective approach to ESG so that it supports the overall business strategy.

Roundtable discussion points:

  • Discover how effective ESG practices can not only mitigate risks but also create a sustainable competitive advantage in the marketplace.
  • Learn how to guide and work with senior leadership teams to develop cohesive and impactful ESG strategies.
  • Understand how to craft compelling narratives that resonate with your investors and key stakeholders.
