Sustainability has become a crucial concept in the 21st century. However, it is a complex and extensive idea. What does sustainability look like in real life? What are the opportunities and risks associated with it? And how does it relate to businesses and their clients?
These are some of the questions that led Maarten Spiljard, Managing Director, Peterson, to the INSEAD Business Sustainability programme. The programme explores emerging frameworks, best practices, and implementation strategies for sustainable business.

“Sustainability is absolutely critical in terms of advisory and board work,” said Cleopatra Kitti, Founder, The Mediterranean Growth Initiative. “We’re at an important juncture in Europe and the US, where we really need businesses to rethink how they deliver shareholder value in the longer term. There is no shareholder value without stakeholder value”.
She chose to embark on the INSEAD Business Sustainability Programme as it represented an opportunity to understand the fundamentals of business sustainability; to “remove the noise,” and dig deep into the spaces where climate, geo-economics, regulation, business and capital markets interact—to really get to grips with the strategic imperative of sustainability.

Sustainable investing – investing in “sustainable” funds – has been one of the hottest areas of growth in the financial market. However, an increasing number of sustainability measures, a lack of standards, and greenwashing are causing concerns. What is the record of sustainable investing? Can it achieve true sustainability? How can companies and executives contribute to a sustainable world?
Join us where Lily Fang, Professor of Finance, Programme Director of Finance for Executive at INSEAD, will illustrate how your work as an executive can contribute meaningfully to true sustainability. Watch on Demand.
Sustainability is an opportunity for society and for business when business models can be innovated that align the needs and incentives of both. Entrepreneurs Pierre-François Thaler (MBA 99D) and Frédéric Trinel founded in 2007 EcoVadis, pioneering a service that assesses the sustainability of supply chains around the world, a key need for making businesses operate more sustainably. It is now a hugely successful platform with active service to more than 100,000 companies across 160 countries.
Join us in September for an in-depth discussion with both Founders of EcoVadis about how technology allowed them to scale and provide accurate and reliable assessments of supplier sustainability – and grow a successful business.
