About ESG Summit
The ESG Adria Summit is the region’s foremost business event, advancing the sustainability agenda and shaping the future of responsible growth. With a distinct focus on economic resilience and long-term prosperity, the Summit serves as a unique platform to establish connections and strengthen ties with key EU and global stakeholders. It is a space for innovation, influence, and decisive action.
Far more than a conference, the Summit is where the next wave of sustainable business strategies for the Adriatic region is forged. It’s where strategic alliances are built, significant initiatives are launched, and attendees gain invaluable insights, forge influential relationships, and explore the most current trends in ESG—from pioneering technologies to transformative business models.
Hosted by Sustineri Partners, a boutique consultancy and think tank specialising in ESG and sustainability strategy and Porto Montenegro, a prestigious marina and waterfront development in the UNESCO World Heritage Site Bay of Kotor, the Summit is held in partnership with the Government of Montenegro and under the auspices of the President of Montenegro. It brings together senior representatives from companies, banks, international financial institutions, government bodies, civil society, and leading sustainability experts to foster collaborative dialogue and action.
Now in its third year, the ESG Adria Summit continues its mission to catalyse positive change for businesses and society through thoughtprovoking discussions and long-term stakeholder engagement.
