UNGC Leaders Summit, New York

Chaired by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, the Summit provided a platform for over 1,200 leaders to collaborate and commit to building a new era of sustainability – an era where environmental, social and governance issues are deeply integrated into business based on both material and ethical rationales. Ban urged participants to lead a “race to the top”, by embracing openness, anchoring profit- making in universal principles and favouring long-term horizons over the pursuit of short-term profits.
