Work together to implement ESG and write a new chapter in the sustainable development of the Greater Bay Area
Honorable Chairmen, Members and friends,
Hello, everyone!
As the founding President of the Greater Bay Area ESG Promotion Association, it is with great excitement and pride that I extend my best regards and heartfelt thanks to all of you! Thank you for witnessing this milestone - the official launch of the Greater Bay Area ESG Promotion Association.
The Greater Bay Area is one of the most dynamic economic regions in China and a focus for international investors. As an important part of the Greater Bay Area and an international financial center, Hong Kong, with its world-class financial infrastructure and ability to connect global capital, has the unique advantage of combining cutting-edge international ESG concepts with Chinese practice. We firmly believe that Hong Kong's role as a financial bridge will provide strong support for the leapfrog progress of ESG development in the Greater Bay Area.
The establishment of the Greater Bay Area ESG Promotion Association is precisely to play a bridge and link role in this context, bringing the world's leading ESG standards, systems and concepts to the Greater Bay Area, providing reference and guidance for enterprises, and helping cities in the Greater Bay Area to integrate into the global trend of sustainable development. At the same time, we also hope that through the platform of the association, we can convey China's efforts and achievements in the field of ESG to the world, tell China's ESG story, and establish a good image of Chinese enterprises with responsible and sustainable development.
ESG is not only a management model, but also a comprehensive embodiment of corporate environmental, social and governance responsibilities. Promoting the ESG concept to take root in the Greater Bay Area is the key to our global integration and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. We will organize a series of activities such as international forums, industry seminars and training to build a platform for enterprises to share and cooperate, and help them find a suitable path for their own development in the global ESG framework.
In the context of the international community's concern about climate change, environmental protection and social equity, the mission of the Greater Bay Area ESG Promotion Association is not only to lead the sustainable development of the region, but also to become part of the global ESG ecology and promote the two-way exchange of ESG concepts between China and the world. We will help enterprises grasp the latest global ESG standards, and urge them to fulfill social responsibilities and environmental obligations while pursuing business value, and demonstrate the responsibility of Chinese enterprises in the field of sustainable development.
Dear friends, the road to ESG in the future is a long one, but it is also full of opportunities. We look forward to working with you to make the Greater Bay Area a benchmark region for global ESG development and showcase China's ESG achievements and wisdom to the world. Here, I sincerely invite you to join us and jointly contribute to the green future of the Greater Bay Area and the world!
Thank you all!
