ESG Day
Time: 10 AM - 12 PM (Colombian Time)
The ESG day will feature sessions on ESG finance, a growing factor at the heart of mining investment. In journalism, there is a saying of “follow the money”. Well, lenders and investors are increasingly basing investment decisions on the ESG performance of companies. Money is speaking and this will drive mining companies to place environmental, social and governance issues at the heart of everything they do. ESG day will also feature a women in mining, the E3+ principles for exploration and case study panel with leading mining companies in the ESG to discuss best practice.
