The role of boards in a new resource economy

Sign up for this event

Profound changes to global energy systems, materials and land use offer an opportunity to create a new resource economy – one that is rooted in resilience and long-term prosperity. This vision is outlined by Chapter Zero and Systemiq in a new report: The new resource economy – a vision for the role of boards in business resilience and economic transition. Understanding this ongoing transition is crucial for forward-thinking non-executive directors at the heart of strategic business transformation, capturing value and ensuring longevity.

This webinar for global non-executive directors and senior business leaders will feature a briefing from Jeremy Oppenheim, Managing Partner and Co-Founder at Systemiq, on the resource revolutions shaping today’s operating landscape, where participants will gain insights on how boards can use this paper to:

  • Reframe net zero discussions in their boardrooms
  • Navigate transition challenges
  • Cultivate the winning capabilities their organisations need to position themselves as resilient value creators.

This will be followed by a panel discussion featuring Tim Waddell, Chapter Zero Fellow and NED at Mizuho International Plc, Eran Klein, NED at TBC Bank Plc, and Francis Wedin, Founder and Executive Chair at Vulcan Energy Resources, who will explore what the findings of the report mean for the boardrooms of the future. There will also be an opportunity for audience Q&A at the end of the session.
