Companies and shareholders alike, are becoming increasingly aware of mounting environmental, social, governance (ESG) and sustainability-related risks affecting corporate performance. Many of these sustainability risk factors, however, are not well understood or mitigated by standard enterprise risk management protocol. As stakeholder expectations begin to shift, a proactive response is required market wide.
The Sustainability and Risk Management Summit is a new full-day program that will bring companies and shareholders together to collectively address emerging risks through best practices and tools. Through the cross-sector discussion, all participants will be exposed to means of capitalizing on the resilience opportunities inherent in sustainability risks.
