Workshop on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Initiatives for SME Development

ESG factors are increasingly shaping the business landscape, influencing investor decisions, regulatory frameworks, and consumer preferences. While large corporations have the resources to implement ESG strategies, SMEs often struggle to adapt to these changes due to a lack of financial and technical capacity. Strengthening ESG adoption among SMEs is essential for enhancing resilience, improving access to sustainable finance, fostering responsible business practices, and improving productivity. Regulatory requirements, such as sustainability reporting obligations and responsibility frameworks, are creating new expectations for SMEs. Businesses that successfully incorporate ESG principles can improve operational efficiency, build stronger stakeholder trust, and gain a competitive edge. Understanding the evolving ESG landscape and its implications is critical for SMEs to remain viable and competitive in a rapidly transforming market.
