CEO Breakfast: Disrupting Business for Purpose

The CEO Breakfast offers a rare opportunity for top business and thought leaders to exchange valuable perspectives on harnessing human and team potential to innovate and scale positive impact. At this closed-door conversation, purpose-driven C-suites will explore innovative thinking, adaptative culture, talent diversity, and other key drivers of positive disruption. We will also discuss the pivotal role of capital in supporting net-positive and profitable breakthroughs.

We will be joined online from San Francisco by Tom Chi, founding member of Google X and founder of At One Ventures, and in person by Lydia Tang, leadership advisory consultant at Egon Zehnder, as we delve into the catalysts behind purpose-driven innovation.

Don’t miss a morning of inspiration and networking with top industry leaders and secure your spot now as seats are limited.

 

What will you get out of this? 

Participants will learn how to:

  • Identify new technologies that can drive a positive impact on the planet, society and business profit
  • Explore themes and sectors where to direct capital to benefit from the next wave of growth and innovation
  • Create the corporate culture to enable sustainable innovation across the organisation and unlock the best ideas and potential of your people
  • Build and equip teams/organisations with the agility to deal with rapid change and constant uncertainties during the transition
  • Integrate nature as a source of inspiration for your impact initiatives
