Description
The key note speaker will center on the enablers of cooperatives in sustainable development: how businesses should be re-aligning their strategies, practices, and operations so as to unlock investments and innovation in support of the government agenda of promoting activities that will promote sustainable development, overcome global problems such as extreme poverty, scarce natural resource
exploitation and climate change. This will explore whether businesses are paying attention to activities along the value chain, developing innovative business models, reducing corporate risk, increasing opportunities that arise from sustainable development issues and engaging special efforts to transform the capital to create value for themselves and for others. Some special topics under discussion include sustainable entrepreneurship and cooppreneurship; the role of blended finance in addressing developmental challenges;
role of cooperatives in the manufacturing sector; innovation and incubation and technology in business.
