Brookings: Profit and Purpose – Aligning Business for a Sustainable Future
January 10 @ 9:30 am - 10:30 am
Brookings is hosting Profit and Purpose: Aligning Business for a Sustainable Future on Friday, January 10th, from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM, at the Brookings Institution – Falk Auditorium.
This event will also be broadcasted online. As global challenges intensify, the relationship between capitalism and sustainable development has reached a critical juncture. Private enterprises have long driven societal progress, yet market forces have also deepened societal challenges and environmental stresses. On January 10th, the Center for Sustainable Development at Brookings will launch the book’s publication with an overview and panel discussion of key themes. The event will discuss actionable strategies for aligning business goals with global priorities, notably the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), against the backdrop of a rapidly shifting landscape of sustainability standards and policies. It will share insights on how business leaders, financial actors, policymakers, and regulators can contribute to an ecosystem where the targeted pursuit of business profits can better add up to the world’s profit, broadly defined.
