“Big business players and big companies always lead CSR movement”, states Global Managing Director of Public Affairs for Telefónica Spain, Alberto Andreu Pinillos. On the content of RSB Event, Mr. Andreu goes on to note that, “this event is important because CSR & Sustainability are facing a critical moment because of the economic crisis...now, more than ever, CSR is in the centre of the solution to help companies to be more competitive thanks to transparency, risk management and new business opportunities.”
Mr Andreu will be speaking at RSB Event, taking place in Barcelona 18-19 October 2012. With the increasing necessity for companies to think of their impact on society and the planet, RSB Event will initiate discussion and best-practise sharing among companies who are already leading in their steps towards sustainable operations and also those companies who are just starting on the sustainable path. Mr. Andreu, along with Nick Lakin, Head of CR & Commercial Communications, Molson Coors Brewing Company UK & Ireland and Ignacio Ágreda, Director of Communications and Corporate Responsibility, ArcelorMittal Spain will share their points of view on the panel Business and Government working Together – Building Strategic Partnerships as a Tool to Sustainable Growth. This Panel will take questions and input from the audience on topics such as: who should regulate CR&S and how, the roles and motivations of businesses and governments towards a sustainable economy and how to motivate other corporations who are not yet behaving responsibly to make CSR commitments.
On this point, a further panellist for RSB Event, Nick Aster, Founder of TriplePundit.com, notes, “Business is increasingly taking on a more proactive role in building a sustainable world”. Nick continues “We think business plays a role at least as important as that of government and can more efficiently kick-start solutions to many of the world's most challenging problems.”
The main differentiator of RSB Event is its focus on Business, and the way CSR has the potential to be one of the most valuable tools for a company’s economic success. Attendees of this event will leave with real-life examples and the practical know-how to devise an approach to CSR which will start delivering from the moment of implementation.
The boutique-feel of this event, with a maximum of 80 attendees and very strictly limited sponsorship, facilitates in-depth conversation and strategy – with an accelerated programme of back-to-back sessions and opportunities for idea exchange.
The programme includes:
When asked why he wants to attend RSB Event, Nick Aster, TriplePundit, succinctly put it, “As a media organisation, our job is not only to tell the story of sustainable business but to be a catalyst for deeper conversation - we hope our role will inspire best practices in business and also help call attention to areas that need improvement.” This mission statement mirrors the vision of RSB Event; join us October 18th and 19th – don’t be left out of the conversation and shaping the future! Advanced Booking rate available until September 15th.
