Mr. Ryuji Kitajima

[Lecture Overview]

With the commencement of non-financial information disclosure and emissions trading systems, corporate environmental responsibilities are becoming increasingly broad.

At the same time, companies must be aware of environmental risks beyond traditional pollution control and waste management, including resource circulation business and environmental labeling. Furthermore, asbestos has emerged as a serious, "old yet new" issue. Since these environmental risks occur infrequently, many companies lack sufficient internal expertise.

Additionally, ESG-based checks during M&A and investment activities are becoming increasingly important.

In this seminar, an attorney specializing in environmental law with experience in manufacturing and environmental consulting will discuss environmental risks and responses through practical, case-centered content.
