Velvet Innovation Conference 2024
Mezinárodní Velvet Innovation Conference propojuje podnikatele – zástupce startupů, malých a středních firem i korporací, s investory, profesionály z oblasti výzkumu, vývoje, z akademické sféry nebo veřejné správy. Letošní téma zní Ambition (Un)locked neboli volně přeloženo (Ne)spoutané ambice. Jejím hlavním hostem je britský autor dvacítky knih, konzultant a podnikatel v oblasti udržitelného rozvoje John Elkington.
What is this year's edition about?
At the heart of every breakthrough lies a powerful force: ambition. Do we have what it takes? How does our collective and individual ambition drive us towards or away from sustainable growth? "Ambition (Un)locked" invites leaders and innovators to unlock the potential of ambition without constraints while considering strategies that ensure sustainability and resilience. Through our diverse program blocks, we will explore how ambition influences sustainable business, technology, equality, or well-being and how we can navigate its challenges to build an environment where innovation and ambition thrive in harmony.
