Event Sustainability 2016

On 6 April 2016, speakers and panelists discussed with business, political and scientific representatives how win-win situations could arise for both companies and stakeholders as a result of a company's strategic and sustainable positioning. How can a Swiss company ensure the sustainability of its entire supply chain? And how can we prevent pioneers from risking a competitive disadvantage through their actions? Geoff Kendall, founder and CEO of the London-based Future-Fit Business Foundation, also presented his new benchmark methodology.

Speakers: Dr. Geoff Kendall (Future-Fit Foundation, Co-Founder & CEO), Rudolf Hadorn (Gurit Services AG, CEO), René Walpen (Study participant).

Panelists: Prof. Dr. Thomas Dyllick (Institute for Economics and Ecology HSG, Professor for Sustainability Management), Michael Gerber (EDA/DEZA, Ambassador, Special Representative for Global Sustainable Development), Antoinette Hunziker-Ebneter (Forma Futura Invest AG, CEO, Founding Partner), Thomas Pletscher (economiesuisse, Member of the Executive Board, Head of Competition and Organisational Affairs), Matthias Müller (S2 Sustainability Strategies, The Natural Step Schweiz, President).

The event was moderated by Danielle Lalive, Sustainability Moderator.
