May 2021 Breakfast Briefing
ESG in Action in Private Equity Investing

7:30 - 10:00 AM

Held virtually on the Remo Platform

How are middle market private equity firms successfully embracing the growing role of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) in their investment strategies, fund raising pitches, portfolios, and hiring? 

ESG is driven in large part by Limited Partners (LPs) - pensions, endowments and foundations - who commit capital to PE funds and have a growing mandate to invest in managers who deliberately consider the environmental and social impact as well as diversity in their investment decisions.

Find out how these shifts in investing will impact the middle market and those of us who advise, invest, and intermediate deals.

Join us for an engaging discussion on best practices, challenges, successes and frameworks for successfully driving the incorporation of ESG at all levels.

Tech Tips for Remo:

  • Use Google Chrome; iPad / iPhone not recommended, but Safari works better
  • Turn off your Firewall and/or VPN
  • Refresh your browser window
  • Enable your microphone & camera access in your browser (typically from the URL bar in your browser window)

If this is your first time on Remo, we recommend logging in early to avoid technology issues. Email acgphiladelphia@acg.org with any questions.  

Profile Tips:

  • Set-up your profile with a photo 
  • Consider adding your firm name at the end of your FULL NAME field to create a virtual name tag  (i.e. Jen Simons, ACG Philadelphia) 
  • Headline - include your firm function or something about yourself

Navigating Tips: 

  • Once logged in, you're automatically placed at a networking table
  • Combination of 2, 4 and now bigger 8 top tables - all numbered
  • Turn on your mic/camera- feature at the bottom of the floorplan. When you sit at a table, it's like a Zoom Meeting
  • To move, double click on a table with an empty seat and you will be placed at that table. You can also click and drag the floorplan to move it around, and/or zoom in and out
  • Hover over someone's image to see their profile
  • Use "chat" to send a private message. Share your floor & table number to meet up
  • Networking happens before and after the program, but automatically shuts down during the program
  • Move between floors by clicking where you want to go. The "virtual elevator" is located on the left hand side of the floorplan
  • Questions during the presentation are encouraged, and can be submitted through the Q&A tab on the right-hand side of your screen when in presentation mode
