The Institute of ESG & Benchmark (IESGB) is delighted to announce the fourth edition of the highly acclaimed ESG Achievement Awards for 2023/2024 (Awards). Last year, we witnessed an extraordinary gathering of over 50 industry pioneers who left a lasting impression on the jury, committee members, and honoured guests.

Introducing the focus and theme of this year's Awards: "Driving Positive Change: Innovations in Sustainable Practices and Responsible Risk Management". This theme encapsulates the ethos of organisations and professionals who act as catalysts for positive transformation through their sustainable practices.

In the current business landscape, leaders are increasingly prioritising the assessment of issues' influence on financial performance, reputation, risk exposure, and corporate value. Recognising that sustainability encompasses a wide array of concerns, including human rights and not solely climate-related matters, the business community in Hong Kong continues to focus on talent development and artificial intelligence (AI). It is our belief that organisations that approach environmental and social risks with creative thinking, curiosity, and strategic acumen, while considering diverse stakeholder perspectives, are better equipped to navigate the challenges posed by ESG issues.

Thus, IESGB is excited to embark on another fruitful journey as it embraces the importance of promoting sustainable practices and honouring those whose passions and dedication help shape a brighter future.
