“ESG [Environmental, Social & Governance] in the EU: What has changed and what leaders need to know in 2026” is the theme of the free webinar hosted by C-MORE, an ESG intelligence platform for governments and large organisations, and XPLOR, a specialist in digital transformation, cloud technology, and smart solutions, this Friday, March 13th. The online meeting, taking place at 3:00 PM, is aimed at executives and managers and seeks to address the most recent transformations in the regulatory environment and their respective impacts on business. On the table will be the latest changes to European sustainability frameworks, with a focus on the CSRD—the standard defining ESG reporting and transparency rules—and the CSDDD, which regulates organizational responsibility for environmental and social impacts across the value chain, as well as the practical effects of these requirements for large, small, and medium-sized enterprises, and global operations. “Even in cases where there is no direct reporting obligation, the demands from clients, banks, investors, and commercial partners continue to grow. This scenario makes it essential for companies to understand the new regulatory framework and prepare for the 2026 and 2027 cycles, anticipating risks and opportunities,” the companies explain in a statement. The meeting will be led by Francisco Granja, Head of Legal at C-MORE, and Sofia Vinagre, ESG Business Unit Manager at XPLOR, who will analyze changes in terms of deadlines, requirements, and processes, as well as their effects on financing, contracts, supply, and corporate strategy. In times of crisis, managers focus investments on technology and abandon ESG.
