During the tour, Lenovo and CGN shared their related practices and insights. Lenovo introduced how it leverages its "new IT" advantages to empower biodiversity conservation through digital and intelligent technology innovation. Wang Xuan, Responsible Person of ESG & SD of Lenovo Group; Secretary General of ESG & Social Value Committee of Lenovo China Site, shared Lenovo's innovative attempt to combine cutting-edge technology with biodiversity conservation, and pointed out that it is necessary to use science and technology to promote positive changes in the field of biodiversity. Zhu Dan, Senior Manager of CGN, shared the background and experience of CGN in biodiversity conservation, shared the way of harmonious coexistence between enterprises and nature, the effective way for CGN to integrate natural capital into enterprise management, and the action route to promote biodiversity conservation through multiple channels and in an orderly manner.

With the increase in global attention to biodiversity, more and more investors are integrating biodiversity into their investment decisions and portfolio management. In terms of ESG disclosures, biodiversity is an increasingly inevitable issue for enterprises. Forward-looking global leaders have created highlights of biodiversity transformation from multiple levels such as manufacturing, raw materials and products, operation management, and business models. The use of professional tools such as natural capital accounting can help enterprises identify the impact and dependency on nature in the operation, and the risks and opportunities arising therefrom.
