Plenary Session with Harry Morrison and Caroline Jean

From Ambition to Action: Rethinking Sustainability Strategies for the Next Decade

In the face of significant headwinds—ranging from declining ESG-linked investments to the high costs and complexity of delivery—many companies are revisiting or delaying their ambitious sustainability goals. Despite these challenges, the urgency of the crisis persists with planetary boundaries being crossed and regulations tightening. In this session, Bain & Company partners Harry Morrison and Caroline Jean will explore a pragmatic, focused approach to sustainability that aligns with market trends, builds on the latest consumer insight and leverages technology innovations in order to deliver impact and value for the long term.
