Middle East Executives Elevate Sustainability Strategies

In a recent interview, Daniel Gribbin, Director of Sustainability at Deloitte Middle East, says Gulf companies are embedding sustainability into core strategy as priorities shift beyond compliance. The report cites 53% of regional executives ranking climate among top priorities, 86% increasing sustainability budgets, and 82% adopting AI to support environmental goals. These trends signal growing investment and governance gaps, including limited pay linkage to sustainability.
