Business On Purpose with Appetite

11 September 2015, 07:00–10:30 UK Time

Business, on purpose

A joint event by Brand Finance and Appetite

The case for purpose at the centre of business is well made.  In this event, we'll be exploring the what, the how and the why of ‘purpose’, from corporate leaders and industry practitioners, including inspiring and direct testimonies as well as practical and evidenced-based stories to take back and share with your organisation. 

Throughout the morning the speakers and panellists offer important perspectives on defining and embedding purpose, its impact on culture, identifying and engaging diverse stakeholders, measurement, value and competitive advantage.

This makes ‘Business, on purpose’ an essential event whether you are looking to effect change or simply to build value inside and outside your organisation. The event will also afford a great opportunity to meet others in the settings of Brand Exchange, the new location for brand leaders in the heart of the City.
