This new economic reality is fundamentally changing the course of organisations and investments. The speakers at the 6th rendition of Adelaide Connected, address this theme from different angles.

He speaks in a very direct and honest way about what drives truly sustainable businesses. if there is anyone with the slightest piece of evidence that counters the view of nearly every scientist, that climate change is real and caused by humans, then Nick would love to meet this person. In the mean time his company assists companies in achieving net zero emissions on commercially attractive terms. Tom Hendrick is a pitch coach with a legal background who changed career to help organisations communicate their true value to customers and investors. Tom speaks about how language can controls the outcomes of our ambitions. Something to keep in mind when challenging the status quo!
