    As environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles continue to gain traction globally, Nigerian businesses are increasingly recognizing the importance of integrating sustainable practices into their operations. ESG has evolved from a trend to a strategic necessity for companies aiming to manage risks, meet regulatory requirements, and align with the expectations of investors and stakeholders.

    In response to this growing significance, Sterling One Foundation, in partnership with PwC, NGX, UNIDO Investment and Technology Promotion Office (ITPO) Nigeria, LBS Sustainability Centre, Lagos Chamber of Commerce & Industry (LCCI), Nigeria Employers’ Consultative Association (NECA), and Sterling Bank, is proud to host ESG Series 4.0 on October 25, 2024. The event will provide a platform for thought leaders to share insights on advancing sustainable development and driving meaningful change.

    This marks the fourth installment of the ESG Series in 2024, underscoring the ongoing commitment to deepening the ESG conversation in Nigeria and across Africa. Each edition has offered practical solutions and sparked essential discussions on embedding ESG into corporate strategies. To maintain this momentum, ESG Series 4.0 will offer two key tracks focused on equipping participants with the tools and strategies needed to implement robust ESG frameworks that drive growth and resilience.

    The session will convene ESG leaders, corporate executives, development experts, and sustainability advocates who are dedicated to elevating sustainable business practices. The agenda will provide valuable insights on ESG reporting, risk management, and aligning sustainability goals with organizational strategies. These discussions will benefit organizations aiming to stay ahead of evolving ESG standards and implement best practices that enhance resilience and create long-term value.

    Participants will hear from leaders in the ESG and social impact space, including Olapeju Ibekwe, CEO of Sterling One Foundation, who will play host for the 4th ESG Series. As a development advocate with a strong background in driving social change and promoting sustainable practices, Olapeju will share valuable perspectives on integrating impact-driven strategies into business operations.

ESG Series 4.0 aims to equip organizations with the knowledge and tools needed to implement impactful ESG strategies that drive growth and resilience.”

    The lineup also includes Bolanle Adekoya, Partner and PwC West Africa Platform Leader for ESG & Sustainability, who will provide practical strategies for navigating ESG challenges, drawing from her extensive experience in helping organizations meet regulatory standards and achieve sustainable growth.

    Additionally, Nana Maidugu, Head of Sustainability and ESG at NSIA, will offer insights on streamlining ESG reporting processes, providing essential guidance for businesses looking to enhance their frameworks and ensure compliance with evolving standards.

    Uber has introduced a new hotel booking feature within its app as part of its strategy to evolve into a comprehensive “everything app.” The service, developed in partnership with Expedia, allows users to search and reserve hotel rooms from a selection of more than 700,000 properties. The feature integrates travel tools such as maps, filters, and pricing options, while enabling payments through saved card details already stored in the Uber platform. According to Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi, the company is expanding beyond ride-hailing and food delivery to become a unified platform for a wide range of everyday services. Expedia CEO Ariane Gorin said the collaboration is aimed at simplifying travel planning and reducing the steps required to complete bookings. Uber also plans to extend the partnership to include short-term rental listings through Vrbo in the future. The move reflects a broader global trend toward multifunctional apps that combine services like transport, shopping, and payments in a single ecosystem, similar to platforms such as WeChat and Alipay in China. Other tech companies are also pursuing similar “super app” models, including Airbnb, which has added experiences and personal services, and X, which is exploring financial services integration. Uber further revealed plans to incorporate AI-powered tools, including meal planning, shopping list creation, delivery coordination, and a voice assistant for navigating the app.
