While materiality is a key tool for sustainability teams, the relationship between materiality and financial reporting, risk, or issue management is often untapped. There are opportunities to build stronger connections to serve the core business.

The event will take place in French and in English. When registering, please indicate the workshop in which you will participate.

In the meantime, we are available to answer any questions you might have.
