What does sustainability mean for businesses? From governance structures, financial impact and team engagement to operational and product changes, businesses are faced with complexity.

As attention shifts to the broader scale of impact and value creation, consumers, investors and employees are demanding more from businesses on issues such as climate change, clean energy, water scarcity and support for fair trade.

How can businesses assess their own exposure to these issues whilst also focussing on creating long term value by addressing their sustainability strategy?

In this webinar, our panel discuss the key challenges of sustainability and share insights on how they assess impact, create value and ensure longterm resilience.
