Western Balkans ESG Summit is the first major regional event dedicated to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) topics. The event brought together regional and global government and business leaders and sustainability experts for a deep dive into the worldwide paradigm shift set to disrupt markets in South-East Europe. The Summit aspires to become the flagship annual sustainability event for the region. Farther than the conference days, the Summit will drive positive change for businesses and society through selected long-term stakeholder initiatives launched at the event.
For three days, participants received an immersive experience in Porto Montenegro, an award-winning marina boasting platinum-standard status for environmental consciousness. The event featured keynote presentations and interactive panel discussions on critical ESG themes – sustainable finance, green transition, and green innovation. Attendees had an opportunity to learn about the most forward-thinking technologies and future business models and join focused workshops on emerging sustainability regulations or standards and tools for the best ESG business performance.
The event was organised by Sustineri Partners, a consultancy specialising in ESG advisory, and Porto Montenegro, a marina and real estate development set
within Boka Kotorska. The Summit was convened in partnership with the Government of Montenegro and with Bloomberg Adria, as regional media partner.
