June 3rd 2022: Panel discussion powered by Emex and held at the Burj Al Arab in Dubai
A recent survey commissioned by the Communication Agency ASDA’A BCW found that a shocking two-thirds of businesses in the UAE and Saudi Arabia lack an ESG framework and that only half of companies that have an ESG framework can count on employees who actually understand it. This is evident of the region’s need for heightened awareness when it comes to ESG reporting and its associated benefits.
Our latest Think Tank titled ‘Managing your ESG reporting: Unpacking the human and data complexities of sustainability and ESG ‘ tackled deep complexities surrounding this topic, from the lack of unified reporting standards, to its definition all the way to the various frameworks influencing the ESG space.
