Report 1: Thematic Research: ESG in Foodservice
Environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) is the most important theme of the decade. However, stakeholders are becoming more aware of ESG measures, and companies taking significant action now will be rewarded by the market in the long term. COVID-19 has significantly impacted the foodservice industry and changed demand from consumers. AI, Blockchain, digitalization, and the Gig economy are some of the major themes that are driving ESG in the foodservice sector. Starbucks optimizes inventory management by forecasting demand through AI-powered prediction models and promoting the order of excess supply at the end of the day. However, blockchain will likely have a more fundamental impact on the foodservice businesses in helping to manage and control supply chains.

Report 2: ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) in Retail and Apparel – Thematic Research
With the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, retailers are searching for new ways to future-proof their businesses while reducing their carbon footprint. The pandemic has accelerated the importance of sustainability as well as the online shifting of stores. Furthermore, the emergence of e-commerce platforms has created a variety of opportunities. Owing to technological advancements, the amount of energy used in refrigeration is decreasing and several delivery firms are switching to electric vehicles.
Report 3: Thematic Research: ESG in Travel & Tourism (2022)
Transparency on ESG matters is now required by several other stakeholders and potential future ones. 75% of travel and tourism executives stated that the pandemic has acted as a catalyst for increased action on ESG issues. Executives now realize the importance of adopting ESG strategies to address emerging macroeconomic factors. The key technology trends impacting the travel and tourism theme are sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), AR & VR, smart cities (IoT), and cybersecurity. COVID-19, millennials & Gen Z, and geopolitics are some of the significant macroeconomic trends. COP26 and premiumization are the major regulatory and industry trends shaping the ESG in travel and tourism.
Report 4: Thematic Research – ESG in Healthcare – 2021
ESG has become very important as citizens, governments, regulators, and the media are turning the spotlight on corporations and demanding action. According to a GlobalData poll of the pharma industry, over 40% of respondents were concerned about environmental issues, followed by approximately 30% for social issues and 25% for governance issues. Moreover, 70% of 343 respondents believe that the pharma industry is not doing enough to be more environmentally sustainable. Firms need to protect personal health data, as well as ensure adequate employee and patient health and safety in which the technology trends such as AI, three-dimensional (3D) printing, cybersecurity, and access to medication in developing countries might help.
Report 5: Thematic Research: ESG in Insurance
Insurance companies are focusing on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors as sustainable companies are likely to be more profitable in the long run. In a survey on signatories of the UN Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI), 64% of respondents stated that COVID-19 had brought social issues that were not already a priority onto their radar. Insurance companies need to encourage ESG progress in which key technology (AI, IoT, ML), and macroeconomics (digital rights and focus on health and safety) will be helpful. Companies are investing in green energy projects and phasing out the insurance of coal mines to encourage the shift.
Report 6: Thematic Research: ESG in Construction
An effective ESG framework in the construction industry will help companies identify and measure factors that can reduce emissions and mitigate climate change. Given the hazardous nature of activities on a construction site, health and safety are the top ESG area of concern for the construction industry. The safety of built assets is also critical and must be carefully considered. Additionally, construction companies must consider the impact of the construction project on local communities. As sustainability goals become increasingly embedded in legislation and planning processes, construction companies should look for innovative low-carbon materials, prioritizing alternatives to traditional steel and concrete in their projects.
Report 7: Thematic Research: ESG in Financial Services
During the global pandemic, banks realized that only by helping customers survive the crisis could they help themselves repair their balance sheets. However, ESG is an initiative as complex and all-encompassing as the entire digital transformation project itself. In the context of bank financing, institutions can have very different starting points, with portfolios exposed to various risks, making it difficult to determine a baseline for success. ESG-focused robo platforms use machine learning (ML) algorithms to guide investors towards suitable investments, typically exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that bundle securities into themed and lower-risk instruments in which risk is hedged across a portfolio.
Report 8: Thematic Research – ESG in Sport
Sustainability in sports is vital for leagues, teams, sponsors, and event organizers in the sports sector. They can identify and mitigate factors that contribute to negative consequences and pursue actions to improve ESG performance. Many leagues and brands have set targets to increase diversity at top levels. The sports industry is both a driver and reflector of societal thinking. Players are society’s role models; brands align themselves with social movements to tap into a younger consumer base. The sports leagues can use their platform to influence a broader audience on climate change issues and the need for environmental sustainability.
