Seminar on Consumer Food Well-Being

<h6>About the event</h6>
Societies and citizens worldwide face an overwhelming amount of societal and environmental challenges, including consumer well-being, sustainability, globalization, digitalization, and individual mental challenges, amongst others.    Currently, the Department of Marketing, Copenhagen Business School (CBS) will be organizing and hosting a series of seminars addressing and discussing such challenges. The workshops, conducted in English, will be broad-based, where views from different societal actors can meet, and where we can mutually inspire each other.   The first seminar focused on 'sustainability' and was held in Spring 2023. This second seminar will be on ‘consumer food well-being’, which deals with important issues such as consumer food behavior, food healthiness, consumer nutritional pieces of advice, consumer food stress, and the obesity crisis, among many others.

Upcoming events

If the world were static, we would not need to have a culture of continuing education. But that is not the case. Staying at the top means that we have to keep educating ourselves.

ESG board aligment – too much to ask?

The session illustrates that boards have little ESG-related expertise pertaining to critical material issues related to the companies they serve and offers solutions for strengthening Danish boards.

<h6>About the event</h6>
There's a universal understanding that risks attributed to environmental, social and governance (ESG) indicators result in financial consequences and market downturns for companies unable to respond or engage in these critical measures. 
With asset owners, asset managers, commercial banks and insurance companies applying ESG metrics universally, one stakeholder group remains unaware and inconsistently educated on these essential risks: corporate boards.
The session illustrates that boards have little ESG-related expertise pertaining to critical material issues related to the companies they serve and offers solutions for strengthening Danish boards.
Hear from Virginia Dundas, Head of Strategic Environment Programmes at Ørsted, the largest Danish energy company, about their journey with sustainability, and CBS Associate Professor Kristjan Jespersen's insight on how Danish and Northern Europe's firms deal with environmental, social, and governance factors (ESG). Kristjan primarily focused on the role of corporate boards.
