MAIN STAGE | Day 4 | Good Business

About this event

Businesses play crucial roles creating jobs, driving innovation and shaping green markets and supply chains. But they also drive pollution and unsustainable production and consumption. Shareholder primacy and short-term profit maximization put business success at loggerheads with the common good. But alternative forms and pathways exist for businesses to thrive while advancing the common good. This session examines the role and opportunity for business in the green transition, and makes the case that responsible business is good business. It highlights businesses key roles in growing a better economy, and considers new forms of corporate organization that empower workers, create opportunities for SMEs and entrepreneurs.
