How entrepreneurs can make the world more sustainable

Though often understood to be a difficult path, social entrepreneurship can be sustainable both financially and environmentally. Rémi Parmentier, Founding Director of The Varda Group and Co-Founder of Greenpeace International, will join this session to talk about his experience as a social entrepreneur and about why the modern business and startup world should focus on sustainability.

This public event celebrates the end of the 0Waste Accelerator -a program supporting the development of startups focused on sustainability- and will also feature Esade Prof. Alfred Vernis, who will converse with Parmentier about the state of social entrepreneurship.
