The dislocation and disruption caused by COVID is immense. For many businesses, the first priority is survival, and that is challenge enough. But an eye on the longer term is also necessary – when will recovery come, what will it look like, and how will the business world have changed? While it is still early in the process, the BCCJ Responsible Business leaders will discuss how COVID is changing the conversation around major business issues – what are customers, governments and public sector, employees, shareholders, suppliers and the entire business ecosystem demanding of businesses and how should business respond? What about existing issues of Responsible Business – climate, sustainability and people?
This programme replaces a previously advertised event on Decarbonisation, Business and the Planet. We will run that event at a later date. We strive to keep our event programme topical and relevant so we have changed the programme to reflect the impact of COVID – we hope you understand.
