Sustainability is at a crossroads, marked by faultlines between developed and developing economies, academia and industry, varying political ideologies, and the dichotomy between businesses genuinely committed to sustainability and those who merely see it as a public relations exercise.
This Extension aims to foster convergence by bringing together different stakeholders operating within the sustainability sphere. We plan to delve deeply into topics such as the differing approaches to sustainability between developing and developed countries, potential synergies between profit-driven corporations and public institutions, and corporate social responsibility initiatives and their impact on society and the environment. Probing what is next, we also aim to explore the interface between sustainability and digitization/artificial intelligence.
Participants will have the opportunity to glean insights from keynote speeches delivered by leading scholars and executives, engage in panel discussions featuring both academics and practitioners and cultivate valuable connections through networking opportunities. By facilitating such interactions, this extension endeavors to catalyze collaborative efforts towards sustainable business models of the future.
