Unlocking Better Growth Seminar

Tuesday, April 18, 2023
unlocking better growth

With sustained inflation, increasing pressure on profitability and slowed economic growth, companies are forced to reinvent themselves. Ad-hoc interventions, such as price increases, supply chain shifts and cost-cutting, have moved the needle - but only temporarily.

The key strategic question: How do I effectively approach my market and adapt my organization to achieve sustainable and profitable growth in this new environment?

Register for this seminar to get inspired by leading economists, leaders from industry as well as growth experts and obtain new, insightful, and actionable insights to address this question. Moreover, you will have the opportunity to exchange best practices, network and discuss with industry peers.
