Unicorn Zilingo E-Commerce: The role of e-commerce and digitization in accelerating the adoption of ESG and Sustainable practices

30th November 2021, Mumbai:

Ankiti Bose, CEO & Co-founder, Zilingo spoke to Haslinda Amin at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum Catalyst about the role of e-commerce and digitization in accelerating the adoption of ESG and Sustainable practices.

Here are a few takeaways from the session:

- The pandemic has accelerated digitization amongst businesses, leading to profitability and transparency.

- Profitability can be the driving force behind the adoption of more sustainable practices and that too within a short period of time

- 10 % of fast-fashion manufacturers in ASEAN and South Asia are digital and want to adopt sustainable practices while they continue to follow fair labour and manufacturing practices

- The next step would be to encourage them to use a carbon-neutral process, conserve resources and use sustainable fabric.
