How Novisto is Championing AI-led ESG Strategies
During one of the most globally recognised climate summits, Novisto is sponsoring the Sustainability LIVE Climate Week NYC 2025.
As the expectations around ESSG criteria transform with rapid technological advancements, there is a growing demand for integrating AI into sustainability strategies.
Novisto has been at the centre of this by using AI to align climate objectives with organisational value, which is a central theme for both the week’s agenda and its work.
AI at the core of Climate Week NYC
Climate Week NYC serves as a significant climate action summit, annually organised by The Climate Group alongside the United Nations and New York City.
The 2025 event, occurring from September 21st to 28th, convenes global policymakers, business leaders and innovation enthusiasts under the theme “Power On.”
This year’s discussions focus prominently on energy transition, green finance, sustainable urban planning, technological innovation and climate justice.
The agenda combines high-profile keynotes and networking forums to foster the move towards a net zero future.
Sustainability LIVE Climate Week NYC acts as an exclusive, invite-only platform bringing together influential Chief Sustainability Officers (CSOs) to drive boardroom discussions on advancing climate action.
The focal point is on leveraging AI and tech innovations for actionable environmental progress.
AI meets sustainability and shareholder value
During the event, Novisto sponsors a pivotal panel titled Sustainability & Shareholder Value, which convenes C-suite executives and ESG strategists.
This gathering delves into the swiftly evolving interplay between corporate sustainability and business performance.
The session is set to offer fresh perspectives on harnessing transparent ESG reporting, aligning regulations and capitalising on high-quality data to boost long-term financial value, amidst growing stakeholder demands.
By exploring practical strategies for embedding sustainability into decision-making, the panel will highlight the transformative challenges and opportunities in elevating climate goals as fundamental components of shareholder value.
The integration of AI in these strategies is expected to pave new paths for corporate sustainability engagements.
