ESG Frontiers

About Us

Who we are

ESG Frontiers aims to be the leading platform for policy makers and organisations strategists devising various methodologies for business sustainability. Leading businesses resolve life’s challenges through products and services in a range of economic sectors. They are equally sensitive to the legacies of business practise on communities, the environment and impact on the climate. ESG Frontiers showcases the committed efforts of leading organisations in managing sustainability through innovative investing, social compacting and business values that build stakeholder value.

Bridging the paradox

In Africa, policy makers are grappling with the paradox of minerals endowment and access to capital markets that require solid transitions towards net zero targets. Impact investing has affected development of local policies, with Governments leading the charge to remain both investor friendly and driving sustainable communities where jobs are created, education works at all levels and partnerships are forged towards more ESG gains for all stakeholders. In South Africa the Code for Responsible Investing in SA (CRISA) has produced one of the first requirements for institutional investors and service providers to integrate environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues into their investment decisions. ESG Frontiers hopes to be the platform for companies and state-owned entities that have embraced the urgency to align themselves with global trends towards sustainability in environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) considerations. We will focus on the Energy and Resources Sectors, Financial and investment community, Technology, State-opened entities and policy debates that are shaping ESG decisions amongst Stakeholders. ESG Frontiers will work collaboratively with Universities and think-tanks that have sparked significant research into the integration of sustainable practises in business, the management of transitions, and ESG impact.
