1st day of MB’s Sustainability Forum to feature 4 developers


"Beyond Green” is the theme of Manila Bulletin’s 1st Sustainability Forum. It will be held as a two-day online forum, set to happen on Nov. 23-24, 2022.

The two-day online forum will gather companies who have gone beyond green in their efforts to become sustainable. They will be represented by speakers who have initiated these sustainable practices or are currently overseeing ESG compliance in their companies.

Both Day 1 and Day 2 of the forum will have morning and afternoon sessions.

On the morning of Day 1, the overarching theme is "Sustainability in the Way We Live and Work." Day 1 will have SM Investments Corp. whose speaker will talk about “Integrating Disaster Preparedness in Real Estate Development.” This is very vital as the real estate industry has the capacity to change the way Filipinos live and sustain a lifestyle.

The next topic will be interesting for those in search of an ideal investment. Arthaland, one of the most sustainable and green developers in the country, will talk about “Sustainable Residences: Why is it a Better
Investment.”

Also, in the morning of Day 1, two of the biggest developers will reveal the benefits of going beyond green in their construction practices and the way they built their projects.

Megaworld will talk on “How Building Sustainable Offices Bring Benefit to the Workforce.” On the other hand, Filinvest Land will focus on its Filinvest City Alabang project, in its talk “Developing the Philippines’ first BERDE-certified CBD.”

The highlight of the 1st Sustainability Forum is a Recognition Night on Nov. 24 at the City of Dreams Manila, where Manila Bulletin will honor programs and initiatives of companies and organizations that have gone beyond green and made our planet better than before.

The 1st Sustainability Forum is co-presented by Coca-Cola, Unilever, and Wilcon. It is supported by City of Dreams Manila, Arthaland, BPI, Filinvest, Grohe, ICTSI, Megaworld, SM Investments, Watsons, and Airspeed. SGV is the technical adviser.
