ESG – everyone is talking about it. And like any current phenomenon, ESG is in danger of becoming overused and clichéd. Too many regulations, too many companies, too many green activities, too much of the same.
- How can you align with your competitors and achieve real results?
- Are you tired of repetitive events, speakers, and stories about saving the planet?
- Are you seeking a deeper understanding of ESG and its relevance for your business?

Transformation and Solutions
Business driving green transformation
How do you implement ESG practices while meeting business objectives? What strategy and specific activities can drive business success?
Is there a sustainable future for businesses labeled as “bad actors”? What can such a company actually do to preserve its business, jobs, and expertise while reducing its environmental impact?
ESG on the ground – the market reality
We will present data from the first study in Bulgaria on the readiness of Bulgarian companies to apply ESG requirements: “ESG policies and practices – how far is Bulgarian business in implementing them”. The study shows the current picture among companies and outlines their future plans in this direction.
ESG management is risk management
The climate risks facing Bulgarian businesses.
The potential of technological solutions – how to assess climate risks?
Water risk or what is on the horizon?
The current future – sustainability beyond climate
What are the upcoming policies and regulations and what projects and solutions they will require?
Green claims and the need for evidence.
Biodiversity and new opportunities – biodiversity credits. What would such a project look like in Bulgaria?
ESG Survey
Along with the conference, we also invite you to take part in our short survey,
It will take about 10 minutes to complete, and the results will be presented during the event and made available to you upon request.
