ESG Symposium: Sustainability in Art & Creative Industries: Open for Registration

This symposium delves into the crucial role of Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria within the arts, cultural, and creative industries in Hong Kong and across the globe. While ESG implications have been extensively analysed and discussed in commercial sectors, similar discussions within the arts and creative industries have been noticeably absent. Focused on a practitioner's perspective and with the support from academic fellows, attendees will understand why and how ESG principles are being incorporated into the arts, cultural, and creative industries. They'll learn about the influence of these principles on growth, sustainability, and societal impact.

The symposium aims to broaden the solid understanding of ESG implications in the arts, cultural, and creative industries. It also seeks to highlight its significance and influence on growth, sustainability, and societal impact, empowering participants to apply these principles in their professional contexts.
