About this event

 

The British Chamber of Commerce is pleased to invite you to a CEO Forum: Building businesses to last: Sustainable business, it's more than just the financial bottom line. This will take place on Wednesday 18 October 2017 at 18:00 at Banque de Luxembourg.

 

 

What exactly does it take to build a business to last?  A business built to continue through thick and thin, no matter what the market, economy or global politics throws at it?

Is it enough just to be agile and innovative – or is there something else – something that goes to the very heart and soul of the business?  Something that goes beyond the financial bottom line and focusing only on the shareholders, to something more fundamental, its greater purpose, and a focus on all stakeholders?

Our CEO Forum on 18 October 2017 brings together a number of CEOs and experts to discuss this very question.  They will share their experience and insight into how they are leading in a way that will ensure that their business remains sustainable and continues to function like a well-oiled “timepiece” even in difficult times.

During this discussion, we will consider not only “traditional” businesses, but also the context that is the country of Luxembourg – a country that has had to build its own sustainable business over time.

This dynamic exchange will feature:

  • Sasha Baillie, Nation Branding Initiative, Premier Conseiller de Gouvernement (Grand-Duché de Luxembourg),
  • John Parkhouse, Managing Partner of PwC,
  • Richard Russell, Independent Consultant & Board Advisor, and
  • Anthony Simcic, CEO of HSBC Private Bank (Luxembourg).

Joanna Denton, Chairman of the BCC and Public Speaking Coach, will moderate the discussion of panellists.

To close the evening drinks and canapes will be provided and, as always, the opportunity to meet and discuss with your fellow Chamber Members and the panellists.

The British Chamber wishes to thank Banque de Luxembourg for generously hosting this event in its premises & PwC Luxembourg for its sponsorship.
