ESG Summit
ESG: The Implementation Imperative Summit provides an in-person forum for healthcare executives to convene for high-level education, discussion and collaboration in support of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) initiatives.
This event is a premier opportunity for healthcare leaders and decision-makers to learn and share strategies for practical, cost-effective implementation of initiatives that advance sustainability, social responsibility and conscious board leadership. Attendees will include CEOs, CFOs, COOs, board members, and leaders in supply chain, sustainability and DEI—from both within and outside the healthcare industry.
ESG Webinars
The warming of the planet and the subsequent devastating consequences are pushing federal and local regulators to hold industries accountable for their carbon emissions. At the same time, consumers and employees are increasingly expecting companies to make environmentally conscious business decisions—the social aspect in sustainable investing.
Healthcare is not immune from these shifts, with the sector accounting for nearly 10% of U.S. carbon emissions. By taking action today to achieve environmental sustainability, health systems and hospitals will be better positioned for the future while at the same time improving community outcomes and saving costs.
In this webinar, health system leaders share how they are working towards carbon neutrality through various avenues including construction projects and supply chain procurement. The webinar will also uncover how to implement a strategic environmental sustainability plan, the governance buy-in needed and the reporting mechanisms that should be put into place.
