This event is organized by the Competence Center for Sustainability Transformation and Responsibility

Accomplishing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030 not only requires new mindsets, innovative ideas, and future-oriented solutions but most importantly the commitment of various stakeholders. However, our progress towards implementing the SDGs is too slow. We need stronger collaboration and exchange among academia, business, and society. With experts from SDGs Labs and UNIDO, we will discuss what fresh approaches are needed to inspire current and future entrepreneurs to act more sustainably.

Discussion: 

Johanna Bernhardt, Sustainable Entrepreneurship Expert at Terra Institute and SDGs Labs

Rudolf Dömötör, Director of WU Gründungszentrum

Christian Rammel, Head of RCE Vienna, WU Vienna, STaR

Jason Slater, Chief of Financial Management of Technical Cooperation United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO)

Petra Wenitzky, Industrial Development Expert, United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO)

Moderated by:

Aurelia Brida, Project Coordinator at SDGs Labs, RCE Vienna, STaR

James Gunn, Researcher at SDGs Labs, RCE Vienna, STaR
