SXSW 2025

Business Sustainability Leadership in a Time of Great Change

Description:

The context for sustainable business is being roiled by rapidly changing dynamics including heightened reporting and regulatory requirements, powerful new technologies like artificial intelligence, the increasing urgency of the climate crisis, a volatile (geo)political landscape, and pressures to scale back on just and sustainable business. This session is an opportunity to reassess what is most important about sustainable business leadership and a way to continue to find inspiration in this work.
