AVIV, Israel, June 17,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ESG PRO - Climate Risk Readiness
Through Open Innovation - is a program that invites
corporate ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance),
Sustainability, and Innovation teams from Europe to join on an accelerated journey to
the forefront of sustainability and innovation.
Greece faces significant
challenges in the areas of climate change, employment and
responsible consumption, as highlighted in the European Sustainable
Development Report 2023/24. The country's ESG maturity lags behind
EU standards, with only a minority of companies having established
ESG performance reporting. The recent introduction of mandatory
European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) underscores the
urgent need for Greek companies to integrate ESG
principles. The ESG PRO program is tailored to address these
challenges head-on.
About ESG PRO
In this advanced program, organizational leaders will immerse
into open innovation tools with a specific focus on environmental
concerns and climate risk readiness. Recognizing the transformative
potential of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)
principles, participants will explore avenues to leverage
sustainable growth tactics to drive organizational excellence and
innovation.
ESG PRO is a prestigious program under the EIT Hub Israel, part
of The European Institute of Innovation & Technology's (EIT)
Global Outreach program.
Program Highlights
The program kicks off with an intensive two-day workshop on
September 11-12 in Europe, focusing on:
- Identifying ESG and climate risk challenges.
- Developing strategies and setting
achievable decarbonization targets.
- Assessing emission sources and creating initial roadmaps.
Participants will build an ESG and Open Innovation Roadmap,
leveraging methodologies such as technology discovery, PoC
structuring, and unique value propositions. The workshop's tangible
outcomes include actionable plans for emission reduction and
strategic roadmaps for organizational success.
Through open innovation best practices, ESG PRO connects
participants with startup solutions tailored to mitigate climate
risks, facilitating the execution of PoC projects. This
collaborative approach not only fosters professional development
but also catalyzes climate-focused innovation, addressing global
sustainability challenges directly.
Through cross-border collaborations, ESG PRO positions Greek
corporates at the vanguard of ESG excellence and innovation,
preparing them to meet and exceed emerging EU standards.
