Key insights for acquiring and implementing an ESG platform

ESG is now a board-level concern in the real estate sector. As the market moves towards greater transparency of sustainability performance, companies are revamping their reporting and data management processes, unlocking actionable insights to meet the rapidly increasing demand for ESG reporting outputs while future-proofing their portfolios

Implementing an ESG management solution can enable real estate teams to bridge the gap between current reporting demands and long-term net zero and decarbonisation goals. While efficiency and automation are top priorities, ESG teams must also engage multiple stakeholders, establish specific actions to meet targets, and demonstrate a clear return on investment.

In this webinar, Cathy Keir, Associate ESG Director at Savills IM, joins Natasha Thornton-Clark, ESG Consultant Manager, and Colin Brown, VP of UK and Ireland and Global Sales, to discuss critical considerations for real estate companies when selecting and implementing an ESG end-to-end platform.
