Organized by Hawkama International, the conference aims to bolster corporate sustainability, social responsibility, and robust governance frameworks. These elements are seen as essential foundations for constructing a resilient and sustainable economy.\n\nActing General Manager of Qatar Chamber, Ali Bu Sherbak Al Mansori, highlighted at the press conference that ESG issues have become crucial pillars for corporate competitiveness, investment readiness, risk management, and long-term sustainability. He pointed out that as global standards continue to evolve, a company's ability to incorporate ESG principles into their strategies and operations is becoming increasingly important for growth, attracting investment, building trust, and maintaining competitiveness in rapidly changing markets.\n\nFor Al Mansori, the conference represents a vital platform to deepen discussions among business leaders, policy experts, and key stakeholders. The event offers an excellent opportunity to raise awareness about modern governance and corporate responsibility among the private sector, thereby contributing directly to enhancing Qatar's overall business environment.\n\nDr. Buthaina Hassan Al Ansari, Chairperson of Hawkama International and the upcoming conference, expressed that the third edition of the conference will gather international and local experts to discuss advancements in governance, environmental and social sustainability, corporate disclosure, and sustainable finance and investment. She announced that the conference will inaugurate a dedicated digital platform aimed at assisting institutions in streamlining ESG reporting, structuring disclosure requirements, and enhancing the overall quality of reporting.",
