What about the S and the G in ESG? 

In episode 191, you meet Catherine Smith, General Counsel & Company Secretary at Wah Kwong Maritime Transport Holdings Limited in Hongkong. We have a candid conversation about Environmental Social and Governance, which refers to the three key factors when measuring a business or company’s sustainability and ethical impact.

Catherine is calling for more ESG startups since there are so many things we need to do to fulfil the challenges we are facing.

I asked Catherine why the interest in ESG reports has grown so much; she thinks it’s because so many more stakeholders are reading them now. There is no way to hide.
