Driving Two Key Agendas to Strengthen Global Competitiveness

BANGKOK, THAILAND - 4 August 2025 - SCG organized the ESG Symposium 2025 under the concept "GREEN BREAKTHROUGH AMID THE PERFECT STORM" at SCG Headquarters, Bangkok.

The forum was honored by global leaders including Mr. Koji Sato - President and CEO, Toyota Motor Corporation, Mr. David McLachlan-Karr - Regional Director, UN Development Coordination Office (DCO), Asia-Pacific, and researchers from MIT including Dr. Sai Ravela - Principal Research Scientist, Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences (EAPS), MIT and Prof. Miho Mazereeuw - Director of MIT Climate Mission and Director of Urban Risk Lab, MIT, alongside Dr. ​Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput, Governor of the Bank of Thailand, who presented approaches for adaptation, building resilience, and enhancing Thailand's long-term competitiveness.
