Launch at SEF

On June 8, 2023, six initiators of ESG4Boards celebrated the launch of their initiative at the Swiss Economic Forum (SEF) 2023 in Interlaken. Barbara Dubach is one of them.

About ESG4Boards and its Goal

ESG4Boards is an exclusive initiative that brings together executives with sustainability expertise and industry experience and positions them for Boards of Directors mandates.

Goal: By 2030, 80% of large, Swiss companies integrate ESG in their Board of Directors, with proven expertise and know-how.

5 reasons why ESG needs a place on Board of Directors

  • Climate change and biodiversity loss are major threats to mankind.
  • Economic well-being requires equal opportunities and diversity at all levels.
  • Companies need sustainable business models and partnerships.
  • Investors and Stakeholders expect responsible companies.
  • New legal and regulatory requirements in the area of ESG & reporting.

Sustainability experience is lacking in the majority of boards of directors, even though such knowledge would be essential for supervision.

What does the initiative offer

  • Leaders with over 10 years of experience in the field of sustainability and industry
  • Regular exchange (at least 1x/year) on current topics between ESG4Boards and Board Directors
  • Our members can be hired as speakers for leadership conferences, workshops and events
