The Future in Sound #27 - Georg Kell: Cyclical Versus Enduring Trends

This month on the Future in Sound podcast we speak to world renowned thought leader on corporate responsibility and sustainability, Georg Kell. Chairman of Arabesque Group, a technology company that uses AI and big data to assess sustainability performance relevant for investment analysis and decision making, Georg also advises business executives worldwide on sustainability and transformation issues. He was also the founding Director of the United Nations Global Compact, the world's largest corporate sustainability initiative. Drawing on his extensive experience, and almost three decades at the United Nations, Georg discusses the origins and lasting impact of the UN Global Compact, the importance of understanding both cyclical and enduring trends in shaping investment decisions, and the pivotal role of technology, particularly AI, in driving impactful change within businesses and investment strategies.
