First Steps to Sustainability

Overview

The world as we know it has simultaneously changed and remained constant. Business leaders and organisations have had to rapidly adapt to doing business in the context of Covid-19 while protecting employees and customers. As businesses adjust to this new and changed world, sustainability must remain at the top of the agenda, enabling recovery and resilience in global economies. It has never been so important for companies to come together to focus on growing sustainable businesses, find innovative solutions and drive transformational change.
