Formerly, DGN has been holding annual online conferences with the participation of all members (43 companies in 18 countries). However, in response to requests from group company representatives for more in-depth discussions through face-to-face interactive communication, the subcommittee meeting was planned and held for as the first attempt, inviting representatives from 6 group companies in Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Singapore).
At the sub-committee meeting held in Bangkok, Thailand on September 26, 2023, each company shared its own efforts to achieve its respective environmental goals and engaged in a lively exchange of ideas.
In addition to environmental topics, participants deepened their understanding of sustainability management through topics such as “Sustainable Procurement” and marine plastic pollution, which is a common issue in many countries.
