Dr. Yousef Alhorr, Founding Chairman of the Gulf Organisation for Research and Development (GORD), recently featured in an exclusive interview for Business Leaders ME magazine, where he provided deep insights into Qatar's ESG landscape, and the ESG Guidance Manual for SMEs launched in collaboration with Qatar Development Bank (QDB). Highlighting the manual as a practical and scalable roadmap, Dr. Alhorr explained how it helps small- and medium-sized enterprises integrate Environmental, Social, and Governance principles into their core operations to enhance sustainability, meet global regulatory requirements like the EU's CBAM, and align with the Qatar National Vision 2030.
