Symposium: Transition towards a sustainable future

The long-term ambition of a sustainable future is endorsed by many, but the path towards it is one of continuous search and transformation in a rapidly changing world. How do we navigate this transformative change towards a sustainable future? Three speakers will shed light on this question, each from their own perspective. Following this symposium, Myriam Cloodt, Professor of Strategic Management, will deliver her inaugural lecture titled: Inaugural Lecture: 'Strategic Management in Times of Transition'.
