AmCham Slovakia

After three highly successful editions, the ESG Conference by AmCham Slovakia has firmly established itself as a key platform for dialogue, inspiration, and action among business leaders, policymakers, and experts who are shaping the future of responsible and sustainable enterprise in Slovakia.

In 2025, we aim to build on this tradition and deepen the conversation around ESG by addressing the latest challenges, opportunities, and best practices in a rapidly evolving landscape. As ESG becomes increasingly embedded in regulatory frameworks, investor expectations, and corporate strategies, we invite you to be part of the dialogue that drives progress.
