The roundtable examined the interconnectedness of effective reporting, diversity, and strong governance practices, and their significant impact on firm performance. Participants explored current practices, emerging trends, and the challenges companies face in promoting responsible corporate behaviour.
A central theme of the discussion revolved around the challenges of transparency and consistency in sustainable practices. Attendees shared their experiences in handling these complexities and explored actionable steps companies can take to improve their sustainability efforts.
In light of global trends, participants also contemplated the future of ESG reporting and gender diversity in Egypt. Given the challenges sustainable practices face worldwide, insights were exchanged on what the Egyptian landscape might expect moving forward.
