Conversations Michael recommends every sustainability leader should watch.
Recommended by MichaelSustainable FinanceFrom Extractive to Regenerative Capitalism, a new economic model
Paul Clements-Hunt coined the term ESG in 2004 and helped create the UN Principles for Responsible Investment. This conversation offers one of the clearest explanations of how sustainable finance has evolved, and why it matters today.
Recommended by MichaelESGWhy Sustainability Is Good Business
Prof. Andreas Rasche, Petter Binde
A panel that pushes back on the framing of sustainability as a cost centre. Two senior practitioners make the commercial case, how responsible business shapes capital allocation, talent and long-term value.
Recommended by MichaelAI + SustainabilityIs the AI industry's business model broken?
Sustainably Talking
A close read of the unit economics powering the generative AI boom. Marginal cost, smaller language models, and what the China story changes for incumbents who priced their roadmaps before the curve bent.
