Spoke at the Future Hospitality Summit in Dubai on turning ESG data into real operational outcomes. Amazing co-panelist Fred فادي 法迪 Φρεντ , Dimitrios Kolaxis, Helena Egan and moderated by Lizzy Coates.
Before our panel Professor Marc Lepere set the tone on the importance of measuring both physical and transition climate risk.
Highlights: insurer perspectives on risk transfer (Fred), Dubai Holding’s data-led playbook (Dimitrios), and why SHA & social KPIs matter on the ground by Helena.
Amazing to see the eco-system the World Sustainable Hospitality Alliance is building globally but especially in GCC. Helena touched on the importance of being mindful of all stakeholders in hospitality.
Three key inputs I shared for hospitality companies bootstrapping their sustainability data management programs:
1. Treat ESG data like finance data—clean, auditable, real-time.
2. Close the Scope 3 gap with supplier workflows + AI.
3. Tie every initiative to ROI and assurance readiness.
