COURSE OVERVIEW
With
tougher net zero targets now front and centre in the minds of government and
industry leaders, large corporates may start to move faster on working with
SMEs that are compliant with sustainability standards within their supply
chains. More than half of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in
Singapore believe in the importance of incorporating sustainable practices in
their businesses. Top motivations for adopting sustainable practices were to
improve the company's reputation; to make it easier to work with multinational
corporations which care about sustainability goal; and to help build an
environmentally- and socially responsible Singapore. Budget 2022 has announced
several initiatives to encourage SMEs to embrace sustainability as their core operating
model. However, many SMEs are
overwhelmed by so much ESG information from various sources and are unsure
where and how they should start their sustainability journey. To address this
challenge, join us in this 5-module virtual learning.
