Who is transforming the world towards sustainability? The innovation role of “bioneers”, ecopreneurs… | Fireside chat with Professor Stefan Schaltegger.
In this virtual fireside chat with Stefan Schaltegger, Professor of Sustainability Management, we will shed light on the role of entrepreneurship for sustainable development. As a starting point we take the leading positioning matrix of ecopreneurship introduced by Stefan more than 20 years ago, examine its further developments and interpretations, and we will discuss the question which values and types of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial organizations are transforming and could further transform the world towards sustainability.
