TO champion sustainability, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) will delve into areas that are in high demand by the industry and country.

Investors, said USM board of governors chairman Datuk Seri Dr Awang Adek Hussin, are very interested in sustainable companies and products, as industries need to disclose their sustainability practices to reduce carbon emissions and to commit to carbon neutrality by 2050.
