Business & Society Symposium Brussels - June 27, 2022 We partnered with Solvay Brussels School Economics and Management to host the Business & Society Symposium in Brussels end of June. The event brought together key voices from the business sector, academia, the public sector and NGOs including young professionals who reflected on systemic and complex societal challenges facing our world today and started to create together paths towards impactful solutions. As global challenges interconnect and intertwine, the world needs leaders to take initiative and embrace these links and connections. By facilitating and encouraging multi-stakeholder discussions, the event aimed at building awareness about the opportunities for businesses to align with social needs. It convened leaders across all levels and sectors, who are ready to embrace responsibility. There were opportunities to build relationships, share knowledge and spark inspiration towards scaling positive change.
