Details
The Summit is one of the most important annual events for sustainability leaders in Asia.
Join key stakeholders across the region to discuss pressing challenges, emerging trends and explore opportunities in today’s sustainable world.
“The CSR Asia Summit is one stop shop for learning about the focus and direction in which the CSR sector is moving and to engage with key stakeholder groups across the region.”
In September, 450 senior business executives, and thought leaders from the public sector and civil society will meet in Bangkok. The theme for this year – future proofing sustainable business – will explore how companies are recognizing that there are measureable benefits associated with having a sound sustainability strategy. To leverage this strategy companies need to move from being reactive to proactive. Although the future is uncertain, businesses realize that they will need to contribute to the challenges associated with sustainable development. To do so means engaging with global challenges and making a contribution to development in line with core business activities.
