Hong Kong, 2 August 2022 – Hong Kong ESG Reporting Awards (HERA) is thrilled at having received over 100 entries for HERA 2022 awards, setting yet another record in its 5th anniversary. HERA has also collaborated with GRESB, the global ESG benchmark for financial markets, to launch a new award category called “Excellence in Real Estate” this year which received warm reception.

Tony Wong, Director of Hong Kong ESG Reporting Limited, stated: “I am glad to see the level of disclosure has been improving over the past five years as HERA has successfully identified industry best practices for ESG disclosure. With the establishment of ISSB, ESG information will continue to be under the spotlight from stakeholders, and HERA will continue to play a pivotal role in recognizing the leaders that strike a balance between their business models and ESG.”

The independent panel of judges responsible for evaluating all submissions comprises senior industry experts, including Judy Chen, Senior Researcher at the Our Hong Kong Foundation; Dr. Yarime Masaru, Associate Professor, Division of Public Policy at HKUST; Mike Wong, CEO of the Chamber of Hong Kong Listed Companies; Joseph Chan, Head of Communications and Engagement Section, Social Responsibility and Sustainable Development Office, The Chinese University of Hong Kong; and Lisa Djeng, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager of Keywise Asset Management.

HERA 2022 is proud to be supported by Financial Development Services Council, Nasdaq, InvestHK, Hong Kong Green Finance Association and Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce and others. The winners will be announced on 20 October 2022 at Hyatt Regency Hotel.  For ticketing, please send an email to stella@hkesgawards.com.
