In this special episode recorded on location in Trinidad & Tobago, FuturePlus CEO, Alex Smith sits down with Maria-Elena Navarro and Anya Ayoung-Chee from We Are Soveryn to explore how their partnership is transforming sustainability practices across the Caribbean.

Fresh from exhibiting at the AMCHAM T&T HSSE Conference 2025, the conversation explores the unique challenges and opportunities facing Caribbean businesses as they navigate ESG frameworks, from legacy oil and gas companies future-proofing their operations to innovative SMEs embedding sustainability into their DNA.

This episode demonstrates how sustainability doesn’t need to be a compliance burden, when approached with the right tools and local expertise, it becomes an opportunity for Caribbean businesses to showcase their resilience, innovation, and unique strengths on a global stage.

Key topics discussed:

  • Making ESG accessible for Caribbean businesses of all sizes
  • The gap between international frameworks and local application
  • Sustainability in Trinidad & Tobago’s energy sector
  • Moving from box-ticking to strategic sustainability
  • Harnessing indigenous wisdom in modern sustainable practice
  • Building regenerative cultures and circular economies in the Caribbean
