“Why Should You Be Company of the Year at the GGAs?”

David Picton, SVP of Sustainability at Alcumus asks this question in his new blog article and examines the growing impact of ESG seen by businesses and increased expectations following COP26, despite the challenges posed by the pandemic.

“At Alcumus, our recent research and global client work shows that most businesses have seen a large or very large impact from ESG, and most expect this to increase still further over the next few years. In that spirit, we’re proud to be sponsoring the Company of the Year category in the 2022 Global Good Awards. The Global Good Awards are all about recognising businesses, NGOs, charities and social enterprises of all shapes and sizes around the world, that are driving social and environmental change.

“Whilst there is little doubt that global trading conditions remain extremely tough, there are equally few doubts that customers, the public, investors, employees and a wide range of social commentators have high expectations. These increasingly extend from areas like climate action and environmental impacts, through social value and on to areas of governance like ethics, modern slavery, anti-bribery and cyber-security.”

As well as Alcumus joining the Global Good Awards as new sponsor of the Company of the Year Award, we also welcome David to our panel of experts bringing his vast amount of experience in many fields such as supply chain management and ESG.

He will be taking part in our forthcoming webinars to discuss the Key Principles of A Sustainable Supply Chain and help organisations kickstart their carbon reduction strategies.
