MORE ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
The rising economic impact of both millennials and Generation Z mean that in 2020 it reached a tipping point. In 2020 millennials made up 40 percent of all consumers, and 40 percent of this demographic (according to a survey by Deloitte) believe that the goal of business shouldn’t be a healthy bottom line, but contributing to society.
92% of consumers around the world want to be more sustainable, with 70% willing to pay more for products and services if they protect the environment, therefore showing that it’s not just good for the planet, it’s good for your bottom line as well.
In this workshop you will learn more about how installing sustainable practices like the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals in your business is not just good for the planet, but in attracting and retaining your customers.
The United Nations Sustainable development goals help businesses align their strategy to help solve the global challenges that we all face. There are 17 SDGs and 169 targets in total. While they are all important and interrelated, some are more relevant to different Industries and Sectors.
Plenty of research, tools and resources are provided so that by the end of the workshop you will have some clear actionable strategies that you can implement in your own business to grow in 2024.
