It can be employed, for instance, to analyse media and social listening. Additionally, it describes the methodology employed in its computation and an exposition of the enhancements made to different versions of the Scorecard. The Scorecard was developed to demonstrate the value and importance of a more dynamic ESG performance measure at the firm level.<\/p><p>The report also presents numerous visualisations, with 3D graphs, of data extracted from the i-Composite Scorecard, including i-Score performance of Hong Kong listed companies, RavenPack sentiment score based on different keywords, and YoujiVest positive or negative ESG sentiment score, discussing the relationship among the sentiment data and the i-Score.<\/p><p>The events promote technology-driven ESG sentiment indicators and facilitate corporate sustainable development through big data analysis.
