SYD | ESG Circle: ESG Strategies, benefits and emerging technologies

About this event
 

In the ever-evolving landscape of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, 2024 marks the start of a new chapter. With the global community facing unprecedented challenges, companies are at a turning point and are being forced to reassess and reshape their strategies with sustainability at the forefront. The coming year promises to be a time of profound change, with ESG principles taking centre stage and influencing business decisions in never-before-seen ways. Our ESG Circle offers our members an exclusive platform to engage with the multi-layered world of ESG considerations. In today's changing corporate landscape, ESG factors play a central role in shaping corporate strategies, investor decisions and societal impact. From climate change and community engagement to ethical corporate governance and stakeholder accountability, the ESG framework encompasses a wide range of issues that are increasingly important to corporate sustainability and responsibility. Join us to explore the complexities of ESG integration, share insights and foster collaboration among like-minded professionals. Our Circle provides a supportive environment where members can share ideas, address challenges and cultivate best practices to drive sustainable business initiatives. Adhering to the confidentiality principles of the Chatham House Rules, members can engage in open discussions and collective learning to drive positive change in their organisations and beyond.

In this dynamic session, participants will explore the critical intersection of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles with innovation, competitive strategy, and ethical leadership in the Australian business landscape. 

The first segment, Competitive Advantage & Innovation, will delve into how ESG initiatives are being leveraged to build stronger brands, earn customer trust, and drive innovation. Attendees will gain insights into circular economy practices and waste reduction strategies that are reshaping industries, alongside a forward-looking discussion on how ESG is influencing disruptive business models and future-proofing operations.

The second segment, Social Impact & Ethical Leadership, will highlight the growing importance of meaningful First Nations engagement within ESG frameworks, and how inclusive practices are being integrated into corporate strategies. Additionally, the session will address workforce sustainability, focusing on how ESG commitments can serve as powerful tools for attracting and retaining top talent in an increasingly values-driven job market. 

Join us with member company Logicminds, as we analyse practical perspectives on using ESG as a catalyst for sustainable growth, innovation, and social responsibility.
