Sustainable Finance Week 2024 is Ireland’s premier event dedicated to advancing sustainable finance and tackling the pressing challenges of climate change. Reflecting this year’s broader focus on sustainable finance, the Maples Group will host an engaging discussion exploring how AI and innovation is shaping the future of sustainable finance. The discussion will also cover the role of innovation in transforming traditional finance practices to support ESG goals.
