CIOs play a key role in corporate sustainability by selecting technologies that support ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) initiatives. Over 70% of investors advocate integrating sustainability into corporate strategy, driving demand for ESG software to improve compliance, data reporting, and operational efficiency. CIOs need to understand their organization's sustainability needs, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and evaluate software costs and ROI. Various software options exist for carbon accounting and broader ESG management, with many organizations opting to develop in-house solutions. The global market for ESG software is projected to grow significantly by 2030.
