March 2022

The free event “ESG Stories: from awareness to sustainability”, held on March 9, 2022, was a great success. It was an unmissable event on the subject of sustainability in the business, banking and financial world organized by CRIBIS in partnership with TEDxTorino.

It was a very special initiative, where we had the opportunity to hear testimonies from businesses and banks that have chosen to invest in, plan, and embark on transformation and sustainability journeys to achieve new ESG goals.

The initiative led all participants, including the speakers, not only to think about sustainability and the latest developments, but to the next step of implementing innovative models in the name of Environmental, Social and Governance responsibilities.

SUSTAINABILITY & ESG: THE ONGOING REVOLUTION FOR BANKS AND BUSINESSES

The world of economics and finance has been called upon to drive change toward sustainability, viewed not only as a social and environmental commitment, but also as a great opportunity for business growth for the enterprises of the future.

Nowadays, it is no longer enough to consider financial data alone to evaluate a business. For SMEs and businesses, compliance with new values related to environmental sustainability has become a must.

Energy efficiency and environmental sustainability are now at the heart of global economic and industrial plans. In this context, companies around the world increasingly need practical solutions for support on their journey toward compliance with the principles of sustainability. In particular, assessment of the entire production process and supply chain is crucial, since this contributes on average 90% to the overall environmental impact of a company. 

ESG STORIES: BUSINESS SUSTAINABILITY STORIES

Both in-person and digital, the event took place in the beautiful setting of Palazzo di Varignana, which played host to expert speakers, and involved the participation of the audience via live streaming in discussions on how the subject of ESG affects the world of finance, industry and business in general.

Today’s businesses increasingly choose to invest and plan in a sustainable way. That’s why ESG Stories was a meeting point for different business contexts and experiences, united by a common challenge: the transition to sustainability.
