“Companies and their CEOs need courage and perseverance in order to successfully lead the ecological transformation. They must be open to a radical change in mindset as well as a firm willingness to work together. Digital business models that want to have a future must not turn a blind eye to ecological questions. The ecological transformation is a generational question and a feat of strength, which politics and business can only tackle hand in hand.”

CEO, BlackRock Switzerland: “Over the past 10 years, businesses have sprung up to solve problems that didn’t exist a decade ago, and consumer needs and demands have evolved accordingly. This has created a range of opportunities for investors looking for new fuel for their portfolios by investing in a growing pool of thriving, forward-thinking firms and tech-savvy start-ups.”

CEO, Plastic Bank:
