“No matter how complex global problems may seem, it is we who have given rise to them. They cannot be beyond our power to resolve” - Daisaku Ikeda

Several survey reports involving C-suite level executives, carried out by leading consultancy firms, underscored sustainability and climate change as the key megatrends that will continue to pose serious threats for the survival of businesses. On the other hand, these risks also open up ample opportunities for businesses.

In the run-up to the UN Climate Change Conference of Parties (COP 26) to be held in the UK in November this year, the Conclave aims to deliberate on the importance and impact of these megatrends and explores how businesses can stay ahead of the curve and gain competitive advantage by converting these impending risks to appropriate opportunities. The event is being hosted by the Centre for Business Sustainability and led by the students of the Post Graduate Programme in Sustainable Management (PGP-SM).

Sustainability is not just a term but is analogous to Noah’s arc, which will carry humanity towards a better future.
