I'm your host, Katie Kung, and in today's episode, we're diving deep into the complexities and challenges of global sustainability efforts. With us is Chris Coulter, CEO of GlobeScan, a man with a rich background in international development and environmental issues, and a true thought leader in the realm of corporate sustainability and ethical business practices.

In our conversation, we'll explore how sustainability is not just a trend, but an urgent necessity that varies across regions. Chris will shed light on the critical importance of businesses engaging with the different societal contexts they operate within, from addressing climate change to preserving earth's biodiversity. We'll discuss how companies can innovate and transform their business models by integrating ESG compliance with sustainable innovation, without getting trapped by greenwashing concerns.
