What has been the experience of French businesses implenting the CSRD? Listen to Sébastien Mandron, Board Member at C3D

How is the sustainability transformation unfolding in France?

This week on the Frankly Speaking podcast,⁠ Richard Howitt⁠ was joined by ⁠Sébastien Mandron⁠, Board Member of ⁠C3D⁠, an association of more than 400 chief sustainability officers.

Together they discussed Worldline Global’s experience of producing their first CSRD report, and the company’s reaction to French President Macron coming out against the CSDDD despite France having been the first European country to implement its own human rights due diligence law, ‘le devoir de diligence’. You’ll also hear more about:

  • Why the company believes regulation is vital in achieving the green transition 
  • How the recent UN Oceans Conference in Nice earlier this month is yet another examples of how companies will continue being asked to provide answers on their sustainability transformation
