"The rapid development & adoption of ESG across the global community has been heartening to see. ESG can bridge divides across cultures,languages,businesses and hopefully geopolitics and I believe presents us with a unique opportunity to move business and society forward in a more sustainable way.

ESG has been in the past two years,and will continue to be,one of our Chamber's key areas moving forward to support our members and the wider business community. Through peer support and sharing of experience,knowledge and expertise,we aim to help develop an eco-system for ESG best practices in China and the global market."
