Unwavering ambition: the private sector in a shifting geopolitical landscape
Friday 25 April, 9:30 – 10:45, Collective Stage
In an era of rapid geopolitical shifts, businesses and other key stakeholders – including cities and multilateral institutions – must navigate an increasingly complex global landscape marked by economic uncertainty, regulatory changes, and shifting alliances. This session explores how these actors can collaborate to uphold societal responsibility, drive and finance the transition to a more sustainable future, and turn global volatility into an opportunity for resilience, long-term profitability, and positive social impact. Speakers include Earth4All executive chair Sandrine Dixson-Declève, Guillaume Texier (CEO, Rexel), Marie Guillemot (CEO, KPMG), and Aron Cramer (CEO, BSR).
