Every reporting season, ESG data collection follows the same pattern: requesting data from across the organisation, following up on missing submissions, and checking that the figures received are complete and consistent. When collection is handled as a one-off exercise each year, the effort rarely decreases. A repeatable process, with agreed metrics, data owners and review steps, becomes quicker and more reliable with each cycle.
On Thursday 29 October 2026, KEY ESG is hosting a webinar on how to build that process. Heleen van Poecke, CEO and Co-Founder of KEY ESG, and Sophie Rathmell of our Customer Success team will explain how to save time this year and in the years that follow, without compromising on data coverage or quality.
KEY ESG is an ESG data collection and reporting platform for investment firms and companies. It covers data collection, carbon accounting and reporting across multiple frameworks in a single product.
The webinar covers best practices for planning, collecting and reviewing ESG data, and how to use AI effectively at each stage:
- How to design an ESG data collection process your team can repeat and improve each year
- Best practices for defining metrics, assigning data owners and setting deadlines
- How to maintain data coverage and quality as your organisation or reporting scope grows
- How to use AI effectively, including AI data ingestion to upload unedited spreadsheets in bulk, while keeping your team in control of every change
- How to review, validate and sign off data with a clear audit trail
- A live question and answer session
KEY ESG's AI data ingestion supports spreadsheets of up to 25 MB and 30,000 rows. Every change proposed by AI is reviewed and approved by the user before import, and every AI action is recorded in the audit trail.
The webinar is designed for anyone responsible for ESG data collection or reporting, including:
- ESG and sustainability leads at companies and investment firms
- Finance and operations teams responsible for ESG reporting
- Anyone who coordinates data collection across multiple entities, sites or portfolio companies
- Current KEY ESG users who want to make data collection more efficient this reporting season and beyond
