One of the alumni, a sustainability transformation lead in the finance sector, will provide unique insights on how large organizations are reshaping their business practices to align with environmental and social goals.

This panel discussion will not only highlight real-world applications of sustainable business practices but also demonstrate the diverse paths that IE alumni have taken to make meaningful contributions across industries.
