On behalf of the Institute for Business Ethics and Sustainable Strategy (IBES) at FHWien der WKW and the Center for Sustainability Transformation and Responsibility (STaR) at the Vienna University of Economics and Business, we would like to invite you to the Network for Business Sustainability Sustainability Centres Workshop.

The workshop will take place online from July 12-14, 2021. Held every two years by an outstanding university (past organizers include Cornell, INSEAD, Harvard, Ivey), the event is considered the premier international sustainability network meeting of business schools and universities. The Chair of the Network for Business Sustainability, Tima Bansal, is a renowned sustainability scholar. The network includes hundreds of sustainability centers from around the world whose coordinators collaborate to conduct innovative research, educate the next generation of business leaders, and work with companies to bring about social and environmental change.

We are organizing the event with a strong sense of urgency and shared purpose, in the light of the fact that 2021 marks less than ten years until the deadline to fulfil the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

July 12, 2021, the first day of the workshop, will be dedicated to cross-sector knowledge exchange between academics and top management of leading companies and private game changers.
