Businesses in Nigeria are seeing the value of incorporating sustainable practices into their operations as environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles continue to gain support on a worldwide scale.
Thank you for visiting The Vestigator, don't forget to share!
ESG has changed from being a fad to a strategic requirement for businesses looking to control risks, satisfy legal requirements, and satisfy stakeholders and investors.
To address this increasing importance, Sterling One Foundation is pleased to present ESG Series 4.0 on October 25, 2024, in collaboration with PwC, NGX, UNIDO Investment and Technology Promotion Office (ITPO) Nigeria, LBS Sustainability Center, Lagos Chamber of Commerce & Industry (LCCI), Nigeria Employers’ Consultative Association (NECA), and Sterling Bank.
Thought leaders will have a forum to exchange perspectives on promoting sustainable development and bringing about significant change at the event. The fact that this is the fourth session of the ESG Series in 2024 highlights the continued dedication to advancing the ESG dialogue in Nigeria and beyond Africa.
Every edition has stimulated important conversations about integrating ESG into business goals and provided useful solutions. ESG Series 4.0 will include two main tracks aimed at giving participants the skills and techniques they need to put strong ESG frameworks that promote resilience and growth into practice in order to keep up this momentum.
ESG leaders, company executives, development specialists, and sustainability advocates who are committed to advancing sustainable business practices will come together for the session. The agenda will offer insightful information on risk management, ESG reporting, and coordinating organizational plans with sustainability objectives.
Organizations looking to adopt best practices that improve resilience and generate long-term value, as well as remain ahead of changing ESG standards, will gain from these discussions. Leaders in the ESG and social impact fields will speak to attendees, including Sterling One Foundation CEO Olapeju Ibekwe, who will host the 4th ESG Series.
Olapeju will offer insightful viewpoints on incorporating impact-driven tactics into corporate operations as a development advocate with a solid track record of advancing sustainable practices and social change. “As businesses continue to embrace the principles of sustainability, we must move beyond discussions and focus on actionable strategies that drive real change,” stated Olapeju Ibekwe, CEO of Sterling One Foundation, in response to the significance of sustainability in today’s business environment.
The goal of ESG Series 4.0 is to give businesses the information and resources they need to put effective ESG strategies into practice that promote resilience and growth. Bolanle Adekoya, Partner and PwC West Africa Platform Leader for ESG & Sustainability, is also on the lineup. She will offer helpful advice on how to handle ESG issues based on her vast experience assisting businesses in meeting legal requirements and achieving long-term success. Furthermore, NSIA’s Head of Sustainability and ESG, Nana Maidugu, will provide her thoughts on how to make ESG reporting procedures more efficient.
She will also provide crucial advice for companies trying to improve their frameworks and guarantee adherence to changing standards. The event will begin with a goodwill greeting from Adewale Oyerinde, Director-General of the Nigeria Employers’ Consultative Association (NECA), which will set the stage for an influential and thought-provoking conversation.
