Future-proofing your business with nature and technology

As businesses concentrate on navigating global supply chain transformations and mitigating risks driven by geopolitics and climate change, the next major challenge is how to deal with declining natural capital and biodiversity loss, which underpin a substantial portion of our economy.

The World Economic Forum estimates that over half of global GDP (approximately 44 trillion USD) is moderately or highly dependent on nature.

The question that companies need to be asking themselves is how can they future-proof their business, whilst governments are discussing how to safeguard the economy and society from the risks of nature loss.

This must-attend event will tackle some key questions in this area and explore how natural capital and biodiversity can be harnessed to safeguard businesses, beyond offsetting and reporting.

This event aims to equip you with new thoughts and ideas to expedite the transformation of your business, regardless of its size, to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.

Through a variety of case studies, tangible insights and real-life scenarios, you will leave this event feeling armed for success.

Hosted by SIX Convention Point, join the British Swiss Chamber of Commerce in Zurich for this vital discussion followed by the opportunity to meet new business connections over a delicious apéro.
