This was our fifth annual CEO Forum, previously we have examined how new thinking and new business models are required to sustain a corporate culture of responsibility, accountability, and long-term vision. At this year’s high level networking event, we heard how two major companies in Ireland have put sustainability at the heart of their strategic planning process and also heard about new models of business performance.
