Understanding the investments that will accelerate sustainability is crucial for business. But a lack of reliable data can mean companies can't track progress and measure impact. Low-cost performance monitoring tools can help companies identify simple data to track critical indicators, allowing them to push their sustainability programmes forward more effectively and better understand how to get a return from the investment in their initiatives
In this webinar, expert panellists offer different perspectives on how they use tools to manage important data for business benefit. They give their insight on how these innovative tools can better align business priorities with developmental or sustainability priorities in scalable ways.
Panel:
- Molly Laverty, director of sustainability, Farmer Brothers
- Townsend Bailey, director supply chain sustainability, McDonald’s USA
- Alejandro Escobar, lead investment and operations officer, Inter-American Development Bank
- Daniele Giovannucci, president and co-founder, Committee on Sustainability Assessment (COSA)
Introduced and moderated by Ian Welsh, publishing director, Innovation Forum
With thanks to COSA for helping convene the panel.
