Last week at Electronics Manufacturing Expo Asia (EMAX) 2025, hosted at Setia SPICE Convention Centre, we had the privilege to convene thought leaders and sustainability practitioners for a timely forum on ESG transformation, moving from awareness to implementation.
Our Managing Director, Ts. R. Puvaneswari, moderated the session entitled, “From Vision to Value: ESG for a Competitive and Resilient Economy” with energy and clarity, guiding conversations that cut across sectors and perspectives. Among the speakers:
🔹 Ms. Naveena Reddy, Business Development Manager (Sustainability) at Global ENVDK Sdn Bhd,
🔹 Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mohd Wira Mohd Shafiei, Director at Centre for Global Sustainability Studies (CGSS),
🔹 Mr. Barrie Law, Business Development Manager at Ditrolic Energy Sdn Bhd.
The session delved into:
✔ ESG Awareness to Action
✔ Bridging the ESG Credibility Gap
✔ ESG Practices in Renewable Energy & Waste Management
✔ Policy, Innovation & Market Development for ESG
Through the synergy of insights from academia and industry, participants were encouraged to rethink the role of ESG, not just as a compliance tool, but as a competitive driver of innovation and long-term resilience.
