Although Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) impacts all of us, it does so in many different ways. The issues you face in your business will depend on many factors: your industry and sector; the regulatory landscape; and, above all, the readiness of your company to take advantage of the opportunities and mitigate the risks presented by the increasing challenge of ESG.
 
We are delighted to invite you and your colleagues to our event on ESG exploring how businesses can achieve sustainable and climate-resilient operations while fulfilling the European regulatory and reporting requirements.

This event will give you an overview of the relevant ESG landscape and offer practical solutions for you to mitigate ESG risks and comply with the forthcoming requirements.  We will offer an introduction to Envizi: IBM’s comprehensive software platform designed to drive ESG reporting and sustainability performance management.

The event welcomes attendees with all levels of ESG knowledge, from those who are only now becoming familiar with the topic, to those who already deal with ESG matters in their day-to-day work.
 
Please let us know if you can attend by clicking on the registration button below. The event is free of charge but places are limited. We look forward to meeting you all in-person at CMS.

The event will be held in Hungarian.
