As the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) moves closer to full implementation, companies are preparing for a new era of sustainability disclosure under the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). With EFRAG’s upcoming updates and simplified ESRS drafts expected in late November, the landscape continues to evolve — bringing new clarity, but also new compliance and communication challenges.

In this webinar, experts from Ropes & Gray and thinkPARALLAX will unpack what these latest developments mean for companies reporting under the CSRD. We’ll explore how the revised ESRS drafts may simplify reporting requirements, how materiality assessments are expected to evolve, and what legal, strategic, and operational implications companies should anticipate.

Together, we’ll discuss key changes introduced in the simplified ESRS drafts and implications for U.S. and global companies with EU operations or value chains.

Panelists include Michael Littenburg, Partner at Ropes & Gray, Niamh O'Mara, Senior Director at thinkPARALLAX and Sami Grover, Director at thinkPARALLAX.
