[Conference] ESG Spring Summit 2025

ESG Summit Spring 2025

Accelerating your journey to becoming a low-carbon business

It’s clear that climate change is reshaping the global economic landscape. It's been confirmed that 2024 was the warmest year on record and along with historic heat, Antarctic sea ice coverage dropped to its second-lowest extent on record. The economic toll of climate inaction reached record highs with natural disasters damaging and disrupting supply chains and productivity.

As the climate crisis shapes risks and opportunities facing businesses, companies will need to adapt to the new reality to survive and thrive.

Despite geopolitical changes as right-wing populists challenge Europe’s climate ambitions, experts say that an increase in the number of climate sceptic European Parliament lawmakers is unlikely to derail Europe's plans to transition to a climate-friendly future. After 5 years of discussions and drafting, it is now time for the member states to turn strategy into action.

The Business Post’s Spring 2025 ESG Summit brings together business leaders, experts, and stakeholders to discuss and address the pressing challenges and opportunities related to sustainability and ESG practices. The Summit provides a platform for in-depth discussions on various aspects of sustainability and ESG, including environmental conservation, social responsibility, and corporate governance. It serves as a forum for sharing best practices, innovative solutions, and successful case studies from different industries and sectors.

At ESG 2025, we’ll review the latest ESG regulatory advances, developments and trends, and why they are important and what your company should look out for this year and beyond.

The summit will showcase cutting-edge technologies, share real-world best practices and game-changing strategies that empower attendees to create a reliable, data-driven foundation for achieving global ESG objectives.
