Join us on November 23, 2022, for this special CEIBS Executive Forum with Jan Craps, CEO and Co-Chair of Budweiser Brewing Company APAC & President of APAC Zone at Anheuser-Busch InBev, on Making ESG a Strategic Priority.

Earlier this year, Budweiser APAC received an upgraded ‘AA’ ESG Rating from Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI), just six months after receiving an ‘A’ in late-2021 (its fourth advancement in four years).

According to the rating report, Budweiser APAC is an ESG leader among 51 companies in the beverage industry. It further praised Budweiser APAC’s commitment to incorporating environmental and social responsibilities into its broader strategies and operations.

MSCI also acknowledged Budweiser APAC’s efforts to achieve its 2025 Sustainability Goals in climate action, water stewardship, circular packaging and smart agriculture by linking executive pay with sustainability performance and responsible product and marketing initiatives, as well as its 2040 goal of achieving net-zero across the value chain.

During this event, CEIBS Associate Dean (Global EMBA) and Professor of Economics Bala Ramasamy will host a fireside chat with Mr. Craps about Budweiser APAC’s motivation for taking action and the ideas driving their ESG agenda.
