TIME AGENDA
9.30am - 9.40am Emcee Opening
9.40am - 10.00am Opening Address
10.00am - 10.20am Guest-of-Honour Address (TBA)
10.20am - 11.00am Keynote Address: Reimagine Leadership, Not Capitalism
Although technological advancements have led to life-changing
innovation in recent years, the first two decades of the 21st century
have already witnessed two global recessions, socio-political strife,
severe resource/income inequality, and massive environmental
degradation. We live in times where exciting growth opportunities
coexist with existential threats to current and future generations,
but businesses cannot fully exploit opportunities and sustain their
success without addressing the threats.
In today’s brave new world, we need brave new thinking that
creates a WIN-WIN-WIN scenario wherein individuals,
organisations, and humanity at large can thrive together.
But how? The most common cry these days is to shun shareholder
centric capitalism and replace it with a more inclusive model that
caters to the needs of a wider set of stakeholders including future
generations and the environment. In his keynote, Rajeev
Peshawaria, CEO of the Stewardship Asia Centre will challenge this
view and argue that the solution lies in reimagining leadership, not
capitalism. Instead of just changing and/or strengthening the rules
and regulations governing market mechanisms, we need a change
of beliefs and behaviors towards collective values and higher
purpose. In short, we need a whole new leadership model – one
that embraces stewardship.
The keynote will cover the following:
How the world has changed in recent years because of
massive shifts in both technological and societal norms
Steward leadership as a model to drive inclusive WIN-WIN-WIN
growth

TIME AGENDA
11.00am - 12.00pm Panel Discussion: The Race to Net Zero Carbon

can deliver on their net zero commitment.
The key ingredients of a net-zero carbon strategy
Working with Government to accelerate the transition

1.15pm - 2.15pm Panel Discussion: Towards a Just Transition: The Role of
Investors For Positive Social Change
The COVID-19 pandemic placed a bright light on the ‘S’ in ESG
investing, underscoring the importance of integrating social
factors into investment strategies. This focus on the ‘S’ will be
paramount as investors consider their role in investing for a just
transition. Without a full integration of social, environmental and
governance factors, a low-carbon future that works for both the
environment and society will be impossible to attain.
In this session, our panelists will share how investors can play an
active and effective role in the just transition. How can social
factors be fully embedded into investment strategies? How can
environmental and social factors be better integrated going
forward?
2.15pm - 3.15pm Panel Discussion: Advancing the Circular Economy
This session will focus on how companies are innovating to
