Covid-19 has served as a catalyst for examining how entrepreneurship and innovation can support business – both commercial and social –, their communities while engaging market actors with non-market actors to collectively contribute knowledge, experience, and resources to provide sustainable development for society.

Building on research conducted at the Stockholm School of Economics together with leading practitioners from Switzerland, Canada, Belgium and Serbia, this conference offered insights into how businesses can be part of a transition to a more sustainable world.

Part of Mois de Francophonie, the Embassies of Switzerland, Canada, Belgium, and Serbia cooperated to organize Beyond the Crisis: Sustainable development for the benefit of Business and Society.
