Event Recap: DSO Sustainability and ESG Cluster Launch, Accelerating UAEโ€™s Emission Reduction Journey

๐ŸŒ Dubai Silicon Oasis, in partnership with The Surpluss | Certified B Corp, inaugural launched the ESG & Sustainability Cluster on 23rd April 2025. Over 50 industry leaders, policymakers, and sustainability advocates gathered under the Dubai sky at the Dubai Technology Entrepreneur Campus - Dtec Auditorium. The event, titled "Sustainability Regulation and Climate Reporting in the UAE," marked a critical milestone in advancing the UAEโ€™s 2050 ambition.

Focused on measurable outcomes, the event emphasized the role of regulatory frameworks, decarbonization strategies, and transparent climate disclosures in enhancing operational resilience and competitiveness.

Johanna Salem, Associate Director for Sustainability at Dubai Holding, detailed the organization's roadmap, highlighting how standardized climate disclosures directly support risk mitigation and strategic planning.

Yasin KASIRGA, Decarbonization Leader at GE Vernova, explored solutions for balancing energy transition goals with economic performance, showcasing innovations that strengthen both business continuity and emissions reductions.

The fireside session led by Baldeep Singh from Revent brought forward actionable strategies SMEs can implement to future-proof operations. Facilitated networking sessions fostered high-value connections across corporates, SMEs, and government stakeholders, setting the foundation for new cross-sector collaborations.

๐Ÿ“ Why This Matters
The UAE aims to cut emissions by 40% by 2030, placing immediate pressure on businesses to adapt or risk falling behind. Regulatory shifts, investor expectations, and supply chain requirements increasingly demand transparent ESG reporting and decarbonization planning.
Events like these equip businesses with the insights and partnerships needed to align ESG strategies with KPIs, optimize resource efficiency, and capture emerging market opportunities.

๐Ÿค Thank You
A sincere thank you to Dubai Silicon Oasis and Dubai Technology Entrepreneur Campus - Dtec, for sponsoring the event. Your support plays a direct role in building commercially viable, low-carbon ecosystems that benefit businesses and communities alike.

๐Ÿ”ฎ Whatโ€™s Next
Our DSO Sustainability and ESG Cluster event series will deliver deeper technical workshops on sustainable financing mechanisms, circular economy business models, and resource efficiency solution. Each session is designed to translate complex sustainability challenges into clear business advantages.

We invite you to stay connected. Every regulation, disclosure, and solution implemented today strengthens business performance and accelerates the UAEโ€™s journey to a resilient, circular business model economy. ๐ŸŒฑ
