An effective #ESG strategy can show that an organisation is reducing risks, bringing the potential to achieve business growth whilst benefiting the community and environment. The Environment Ireland #ESGForumIRL explored what ESG will mean for organisations and the benefits it can bring for both the private and public sectors.
