Integrated ESG Compliance and Risk Management

How Laws Like CSRD/CS3D, Germany’s LkSG, Canada S-211 Can Help Build an Agile, Resilient & Ethical Supply Chain

The time to act is now!

In the modern “extended enterprise”, value chain relationships define your business – from risk to profit. That global landscape is replete with ‘permacrisis’ risks, plus a wave of supply chain ESG regulations – like LkSG, CSRD, CS3D, Canada’s “S-211 Modern Slavery act. 

Investors, boards, and C-Suite peers expect a proactive strategy to preempt regulatory – and underlying human rights and carbon risks deep in the value chain.

To respond, corporate risk, compliance, ESG/sustainability, and CPOs all must collaborate to adopt a rigorous supply chain risk management framework to integrate agility, resilience, ESG, and compliance/ethical risks. 

Join us to hear Michael Rasmussen of GRC 20/20 and Nicole Sherwin of EcoVadis combine decades of experience with 1000’s of global enterprise risk management and sustainable procurement programs, to bring perspective on: 

• Imperative to Act Now. Why organizations cannot wait to address third-party risk agility, resilience, and ESG in the extended enterprise.
