The Dutch corporate sector is entering a crucial phase when it comes to socially responsible entrepreneurship. Globalisation demands that a reorientation take place to ensure that competition with countries with lower production costs remains viable . How does the Netherlands retain a healthy economy without loosing its social attainments, and is that even possible?

There are also worries about the environment. Planet Earth can no longer cope with the current production and the pollution it causes. The corporate sector and the government cannot deny their responsibilities. This too, is a matter of strategic reorientation. How do you ensure the continuation of the current level of production without increasing pollution, such as carbon dioxide emissions? The corporate sector and the government understand that responsibilities need to be integrated into the business processes on a fundamental level to ensure successful entrepreneurship in the future. To achieve this, exceptional and transformative leadership is needed.

Samenleving & Bedrijf, in cooperation with The Future Leaders Event, invests in future leaders. It wants to help the participants gain inspiration, offer them possibilities to think about, and practical tools to help them determine their strategic orientation, so that in 2020 the Dutch corporate sector will have responsibly and forcefully anticipated the challenges we are now facing.
