Finance and environmentalism once stood at opposite ends of the table; but today, frameworks for standardizing and evaluating ESG performance are moving to the accounting department. Following decades of work to professionalize and operationalize these concepts, we are witnessing a seismic shift in how companies are internally and externally evaluated and held accountable for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) commitments and performance.

This Summit on Tuesday, November 12, 2024, will inspire participants to envision a future where financial decisions actively contribute to sustainable and inclusive development. Participants can expect to deepen their understanding of the role sustainable finance principles, play in creating healthier and more resilient built environments as well as address economic aspects crucial to long-term positive change.
