The event, held in São Paulo, will present cases of opportunities generated from the incorporation of social cases into companies' business models.
“In Brazil, the richest 1% population earns 36 times more than the poorest 50% population. There is no good business in an environment of poverty and inequality. That is why it is essential to incorporate sustainability into business, in order to develop the surrounding community”, believes CEBDS technical advisor, Henrique Luz, one of the speakers at the event.
The meeting seeks to reflect on elements that would help to speed up sustainable development and relations between companies and society, such as innovative technologies applied to impact businesses, increased sustainable financing and the establishment of partnerships between the actors involved (government, companies and community).
