This week’s Social Innovation Summit in Chicago truly mirrored where we stand in our industry and society. There’s an undeniable energy in the air, accompanied by a sense of cautious optimism. While we celebrate our progress, it’s clear there’s still much work to be done. Grounded, intentional, and passionate – that’s the spirit I see driving us all forward. Many of us are searching for answers, striving to foster solutions in a safe, supportive environment. It’s heartening to see familiar faces alongside new ones, all sharing this common goal. Our discussions around #ESG, social impact, and societal progress are more vital than ever. Can’t wait for next year! #KPMGESG #SocialInnovationSummit #KPMGSustainability #SIS24 #ESG #SocialImpact #Leadership #Sustainability

💡The recent panel discussion on "Innovation Ecosystem: il motore per realizzare iniziative che rispondano alle esigenze ESG in ottica open innovation" was an eye-opening exchange of ideas and perspectives. It's always valuable to learn from others and see how we can apply new visions to our own initiatives. 👁️Watch the conversation here 👇 #Loacker #ESG #CSER #openinnovation #collaboration
