With the participation of the International Observatory of Sustainable Finance of SKEMA Business School

The challenges of ecological transition and climate risks require the involvement of all stakeholders and a combined strategy of at least five actors: universities, businesses, financial institutions, States and Multilateral Governance Institutions. This transition is both an opportunity for economic growth and a duty of compliance and risk management. Some players also understand the interest of digitalization and artificial intelligence applying to develop rigorous sustainable development strategies based on a metric. But it is undeniable that there is still a long way to go to ensure a more serene future for future generations.
