Breakfast & Better Business Ecosystem Roundtable

B4 Better Business Ecosystem Roundtable hosted at B4 HQ.

Join Grant Hayward of OSEP, and other local businesses at our Better Business Ecosystem Roundtable at B4.

About the Ecosystem

Increasingly, companies recognise that business success is more than just making profit, and the essential ingredients demand that businesses operate in new and evolving ways. It is vital for companies to have positive impacts on society and the environment, as well as the economy. People want to work for, buy from, supply to, and increasingly, invest in, businesses that operate in these ways. But how do business leaders achieve this? This isn’t about philanthropy, “giving back”, or just “doing some nice things” on the side. This is about creative, innovative and evolving business models.

The B4 Better Business Ecosystem is a great opportunity to meet and engage with like-minded local businesses to learn and share, and this roundtable is an ideal face to face forum to explore ways in which companies can, and are, doing “Better Business”.
