A new Online Conference presented by Futurist Gerd Leonhard

This initial session is free of charge but it will be limited to 100 participants (and 25 people already signed up since last night after I posted this announcement). Move fast and sign up here.

SUSTAINABILITY AND THE FUTURE OF CAPITALISM

I firmly believe that Sustainable will be the new Profitable, and that businesses and organisations that get on board early will have much better chances of striving in this new era.

Join us for this new Online Conference to learn all about why and how this will happen.

I will present and discuss the following topics:

1. Carbon Taxes: We must embrace the reality that wide-ranging and disruptive carbon taxes are pretty much inevitable. After the initial shock waves – and if done right – carbon taxes might not only inject Trillions of $/€ into climate change adaptation and mitigation measures, but may also fund up to 100 Million new jobs.

2. The Quadruple Bottom Line: The much debated shift to shareholder- (not just shareholder-) value is likely to reboot stock-markets around the world in the next decade, as we transition from the outmoded, single bottom-line of PROFIT to what I call the quadruple bottom-line: People, Planet, Purpose and Prosperity (in the essence, creating a new logic of ‘sustainable capitalism’ *Al Gore et al - 8years ago).

3. Responsible Investing: 2020 marks the beginning of a New Renaissance as responsible investing – and rapid divestment from fossil fuels, in particular – is quickly becoming a #1 topic with every fund and every family office, around the globe (have a look at my deck used at Converge Capital in Rio de Janeiro just a few weeks ago).

4. The humanly sustainable use of technology: Too much of a good thing can be a very bad thing: technology should be magic, not manic or toxic. But who is ‘Mission Control’ for humanity – who is in charge of Digital Ethics? Is data becoming the new Plutonium? Do we need more regulation?
