About the event
Join us for an in-person talk hosted by Fast Forward 2030, a global network of impact entrepreneurs achieving SDGs, followed by a panel discussion facilitated by Ehab Sayed, Founder and Chief Evolution Officer of BIOHM, a multi-award-winning research and development-led biotech company. Hear insights on how nature has inspired trailblazers in the fields of social action, ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) tracking and reporting, and biomimetic investment in designing the future of their businesses and wider systems. As we are moving closer to 2030, this is the time to create regenerative businesses for a sustainable future. In this nature-inspired future event, we will answer one of the most important questions of the Anthropocene “How can we integrate nature into rethinking business models and systems?”
Who is it for?
This event is for key industry players, start-up and scale-up entrepreneurs, and the general public who would like to understand how we can integrate nature into business models and systems.
