The webinar covered:

• Why ESG is taking center stage for companies, investors, and consumers

• The evolution and connection of ESG and CSR 

• How ESG is influencing investor decisions through data and disclosures

• How companies can prepare for and adapt to the new bar of ESG expectations

• Insights for corporations as we move forward into a world with more ESG pressure and data

Cynthia emphasizes that as we move forward, ESG focus will become even more critical for corporate innovation and success:

"ESG will be critically important, and it won't be just important in terms of how it correlates with financial short term performance, but it will really be important in terms of anticipating the changes that companies are going to deal with that are escalating. With the rapid rate of change socially and environmentally, ESG becomes a way for companies to stay ahead, to compete, and to perform."
