ESG Advisory, Backed by a Global Network

The Network Behind the Practice

Established in 2017, the Malaysia-managed International Entrepreneur Network (IEN) empowers over 5,000 entrepreneurs globally. Aligned with the National Entrepreneurship Policy 2030, IEN drives business growth and socio-economic impact across local, national and ASEAN levels, with a strong presence in Malaysia and China.

The ESG & Sustainability Practice delivers the network's sustainability and compliance advisory.

Why It Matters

Why the Network Matters for ESG

ESG obligations do not stop at your own boundary. When a multinational buyer reports its Scope 3 emissions, it needs verifiable data from every supplier in its value chain — so Malaysian businesses are increasingly assessed on the ESG credentials of the partners they work with, not only their own. Meeting that expectation is a network problem as much as a compliance one.

Being part of an international network changes what is available to you. Alongside advisory, businesses gain access to entrepreneurs across ASEAN and China who are working through the same buyer requirements, to the ESG products and solutions those entrepreneurs have built, and to potential partners and suppliers who can already evidence their own credentials.

The result is that ESG stops being a document exercise and becomes a commercial position: alignment with Scope 3 expectations, credibility with international buyers, and access to opportunities that isolated compliance work does not open.

How We Embed ESG: Practising What We Preach

Our commitment goes beyond advisory. At the International Entrepreneur Network (IEN), powered by the ESG & Sustainability Practice, we do not treat ESG as an external compliance exercise — through ethical screening, pro bono community support, and active environmental outreach, we live the principles we help our clients build.
