With an increasing number of corporates setting emissions reduction targets and taking steps to decarbonise their businesses, the session will feature a presentation on how markets are valuing and rewarding these efforts. The focus will be on recently carried out research and empirical evidence that suggests a valuation premium is starting to emerge for low emissions and for delivering emissions reductions over time across geographies and emissive sectors such as Materials, Energy, Industrials, Consumer Staples, and Healthcare. The session aims to give attendees insight on investor and market sentiment and the positive impact that tangible action on decarbonisation can have for a company’s valuation.

Workshop
How to Develop an Enterprise Wide ESG Strategy with an Effective Net-Zero Focus
The session aims to be a learning opportunity for attendees to find out more about how to develop an enterprise wide ESG Strategy and include a focus on bringing climate action into the heart of their businesses and operations. While many larger companies have already developed their ESG Strategy and in particular their Net-Zero focus, and have started the complex process of transitioning, many others, including most SMEs, have yet to formulate a business wide ESG strategy or considered initiatives to fully understand and plan for the necessary changes required to decarbonise and create more effective, efficient and profitable businesses that are future-proof. The session will share insights on how to develop a business wide ESG Strategy and to prepare for, launch and measure their own net- zero journeys and progress along the way.
- Facilitator: Damian Regan, Sustainability Reporting & Assurance Leader, Deloitte Middle East
Workshop
What Net-Zero Means for Banks and How to Start Their Decarbonisation Journeys
The session focuses on supporting regional banks in clearly understanding the implications of net-zero, what it means for their business and their customers and how they can begin to plan for and launch their net-zero journeys. The session will cover and explore important themes including an introduction on net zero understood from a financial markets’ perspective, what are net zero pathways and how does this feed into targets for banks, getting started – establishing a baseline, scope 1 / 2 and 3 emissions and communicating targets, how banks can leverage net zero for business growth and innovation and what does COP28, to be held in the UAE in 2023, mean for MENA’s banks.
