Following the successful 2021 and 2022 conferences, the 2023 conference will address a wide range of topics on ESG (Environmental-Social-Governance) of interest to banks, corporates, institutional investors, regulators, policy makers, and supervisors in Greece and abroad. This is a high-quality international conference organised by two prominent organisations to inform all interested parties on the latest developments in the ESG field and discuss challenges and solutions.
Distinguished academic and professional speakers from prestigious organisations will deliver in-depth presentations and convey their experience to inform the audience on what it takes for all stakeholders to succeed in this demanding reformulation of practices in the finance industry.
The conference is organised by Professor George Skiadopoulos, Director of IFFR, and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
