How are conflicts and warfare reshaping business ethics and corporate due diligence?
Sustainable Development Goal No. 16 supports peace, justice, and strong institutions. But how do businesses navigate and thrive when conflicts emerge, and institutions fail?
From supply chain disruptions and sanctions to increased operational costs, consumer boycotts, and employee activism, the world of geopolitics holds profound implications for business operations.
Our miniconference offered trends and cases on geopolitics in business seen through the lens of a sustainable business expert; a pension fund; a large retail company; and a due diligence professional.
