The ADS Finance Forum, in conjunction with the Defence Sector, are delighted to bring you this cross-sector webinar on ‘Developing a Sustainability Strategy’. With Rich Hall of RSM as the lead speaker, you will also hear from Harriet Wollerton, ADS Services Director who will announce an exciting ADS ‘SME Sustainability Grant Challenge’ as well as Rolls-Royce, who will discuss supply chain requirements from a Prime's perspective with respect to ESG reporting.
Putting sustainable and responsible practices at the heart of business activity is now a pivotal requirement for regulators, investors, and other stakeholders. While profit will always be a key indicator of success, it can no longer be the only benchmark and increasingly investors see the correlation between strong sustainability credentials, and business resilience and value. As Primes across industry continue to act on their own sustainability strategies, it is vital that suppliers into Primes understand sustainability risks and opportunities across all aspects of their operations and develop strategies, policies, and reporting practices effectively to enhance their impact and value. This webinar will give guidance on:
- How ADS are supporting members on their ESG journey
- The key aspects of ESG to consider in the next 12-36 months
- Developing a sustainability strategy that drives short and long term value
- What Primes are looking for from their supply chain with respect to ESG reporting.
