Meeting tomorrow’s challenges: Is stakeholder capitalism the answer?

Diese Veranstaltung liegt in der Vergangenheit.

What kind of economic system do we need for a sustainable future? At the networking event Meeting tomorrow’s challenges: Is stakeholder capitalism the answer? we will examine this question with you and our speakers. Policymakers, experts, business leaders, investors, and the stakeholders of the future will explore what the expansion of value diversity and inclusion means for organizations and for society.

How do we measure success?
