Frost & Sullivan and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) got together for yet another edition of the India Sustainability Leadership Summit 2020 and the 11th edition of Sustainability 4.0 Awards. Hosted virtually against the backdrop of extraordinary circumstances, the summit got stakeholders of the automotive industry to think beyond the Covid-19 induced setbacks. The summit, instead, put the spotlight on jump-starting the ‘Decade of Action’ for growth. Like every edition, the 2020 edition, as a platform, promoted sustainable business strategies for the long term. Averred Ajay Mathur, Director General of TERI - The Energy & Resources Institute, and a member of the Prime Minister’s Council on Climate Change, “Longer-term sustainability is only possible by building up linkages between the strategy of the organisation, its governance and financial performance, environmental, social, and economic governance. In other words, the entire ecosystem”. “Short-term profitability has to be nurtured together with the long-term sustainability for recovering from the pandemic today as well as to put us onto the path of a low-carbon future in a 2040 or 2050 timeline,” he stated.
