𝗘𝗦𝗚 𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗹𝘂𝘅 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 🌍 As we move towards 2025, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors are gaining more prominence in the Benelux region. Here are some key trends shaping the sustainability agenda: • 𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗙𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀: The EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is a major driver, which has now become Belgian law, requiring companies to adopt double materiality and integrate ESG (non-financial) reporting into companies’ core strategies. This will impact not only EU-based companies but also foreign entities operating in Europe. • 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗕𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗰𝘁:  𝟭. 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 are revolutionizing ESG data collection and reporting, allowing for real-time, detailed insights and better decision-making. 𝟮. 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗗𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗱: Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology’s demand for computing power and energy has been widely covered over the past two years as its application and adoption have skyrocketed. The energy costs of AI will continue to capture attention and scrutiny in the big tech circles. • 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲:    𝟭. 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗘𝗦𝗚 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲: The rates at which organizations have attained assurance for their sustainability and ESG disclosures have steadily grown over the past few years. 𝟮. 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱-𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝟯 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗯𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: While regulators and voluntary standard setters generally accept all methods of Scope 3 GHG (Greenhouse Gases) calculations from the GHG Protocol, businesses are facing demands from their customers and investors to utilize more accurate methods.    • 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 ‘𝗦’ 𝗶𝗻 𝗘𝗦𝗚: Social factors like human rights, supply chain transparency, and diversity are under greater scrutiny, with businesses expected to align their operations to societal expectations.    Adapting to these trends is essential for businesses aiming to stay ahead in the evolving ESG landscape. Benelux organizations are well-positioned to lead by example, leveraging innovation and commitment to sustainability. What are your thoughts on these trends? Let's discuss how to turn these challenges into opportunities. 🌟 #SustainabilityTrends #Innovation #ESG #DeCronosGroep #CronosESG
