In this webinar, newly appointed Vice Dean and Faculty Director of the ESG Initiative, Witold (Vit) Henisz will summarize recent research on the integration of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors into the valuation models of investors, corporates and consultants. While acknowledging many of the recent criticisms leveled against ESG including allegations of rampant overclaiming or greenwashing, he will also highlight a path forward guided by rigorous research, improved measurement and deep fundamental knowledge of companies that promise to deliver financial and ESG impacts at scale.
