Rebecca Henderson 'Reimaging Capitalism in a World on Fire'

In 'Reimagining Capitalism in a World on Fire', Harvard Business School Professor Rebecca Henderson argues that "we need a major paradigm shift to replace the dangerously mistaken idea that the only purpose of a business is to make money. Business can play a leading role in solving environmental degradation, economic inequality, and institutional collapse'. How? At a special first online event on March 4, 2021, organised by Sustainability Speaker Series in co-operation with the John Adams Institute Rebecca Henderson talked about this with Rick van der Ploeg, Professor of economics at Oxford University and the Universiteit van Amsterdam, and with Julia Szubert, Masters student of international business at ABS and an Honours student of sustainability.
