Through the award programme, companies can be motivated to innovate in the three dimensions of environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG).
Raising public awareness of the importance of ESG promotes the support and participation of all sectors of society in sustainable development. For example, through the Awards, more and more companies recognise that ESG-based business models can bring longer-term, sustainable value to organisations.
The award promotes co-operation between government and industry to address environmental and social challenges, and encourages policy makers and regulators to pay more attention to and support the implementation of ESG-related policies.
By participating in the ESG Awards, companies can demonstrate their leadership in the global sustainability wave and enhance their international competitiveness.
It can lead investors to pay attention to corporate social responsibility and environmental protection performance, thus driving more capital flows to companies with good ESG performance.
