öbu & GCNSL: Expert Meeting on Corporate Culture, Governance & Sustainability

Join us for an enriching and thought-provoking exchange among sustainability practitioners that explores the pivotal relationship between corporate culture, governance, and sustainability. The "Expert Meeting on Corporate Culture, Governance & Sustainability" is a collaborative initiative brought to you by öbu and the UN Global Compact Network Switzerland & Liechtenstein. We thank Zühlke for kindly hosting us at their premises.

By incorporating both theoretical insights and practical knowledge shared by experts in the field, we will delve into the central question: "How can corporate culture and governance serve as a catalyst for sustainability?". Engaging in discussions with both your peers and our distinguished speakers, you'll have the opportunity to investigate the future prospects for individuals responsible in this domain and discover effective approaches for integrating sustainability practices into your organization.

This expert meeting is designed to empower leading sustainability professionals through peer-to-peer exchange, providing a platform for in-depth discussions, gaining insights beyond traditional boundaries, and exploring future opportunities and implementations in their respective organizations.
