About this event
Welcome to our next HELLO! networking event, where we bring UN Global Compact participanting companies together to explore how ESG reporting can be used beyond compliance, to strengthen business strategy, competitiveness and organisational resilience.
ESG reporting is undergoing significant change. With evolving EU regulation, increasing expectations from investors and stakeholders, and growing pressure on companies’ resources, many companies are figuring out how to maintain focus and value creation in their sustainability reporting efforts. HELLO! Reporting brings together UN Global Compact participants for an informal networking event exploring how ESG reporting, including the UN Global Compact Communication on Progress (CoP), can be leveraged as a strategic tool in sustainable business practice.
The event includes a short academic perspective from Andreas Rasche, Professor at Copenhagen Business School, offering reflections on the ESG reporting landscape, materiality and the strategic role of reporting frameworks. His contribution will set the scene for further dialogue and experience sharing among participants.
Come say HELLO!
HELLO! is your quarterly opportunity to recharge with new ideas, energy, and connections - all in a relaxed and inspiring atmosphere.
