Day 9 – Thursday 16th September 2010
Smarter Business for a Sustainable Future
Paving the way for sustainable business
Building on the debates of the previous eight days, this final session was one of collaboration, innovative thinking and laying the foundations for business improvement.
The speakers took a positive and forward-thinking approach as they worked towards developing a new perspective to improve business sustainability for organisations and individuals that will help steer the future actions of enterprises, government bodies and communities in the UK.
This was an opportunity to shape a sustainable future – and to be publicly seen to be doing so by employees, investors and the wider community. The focus of this final day was on creating directions, ideas and inspirations to take forward for the benefit of your business, clients and society.
