Sustainability initiatives gain momentum in Argentina and Chile

Business leaders and specialists in Argentina and Chile are focusing on integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria into corporate decision-making and investment models.

In Argentina, El Cronista is hosting a sustainable development forum to analyze challenges such as the growth of renewable energies, sustainable financing, and the transformation of value chains. Key participants include Gustavo Castagnino of Genneia, discussing renewable energy investments, and Julieta Artal Conte of BYMA, addressing the capital market's role in channeling funds toward green and social instruments.

In Chile, Red Pacto Global Chile has opened nominations for the sixth edition of the CONECTA Business Awards 2026. The initiative aims to highlight corporate cases that demonstrate how sustainability contributes to business value, competitiveness, and resilience. The awards focus on providing evidence of how ESG integration assists in risk management, efficiency, and innovation in alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
