Building trust for the future of society
While the concept of stakeholder theory has been around for almost 70 years, achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals is only possible through the collaboration of the public and private sectors. In an industry that primarily fails to address the issue, new concepts of a circular economy are needed.
On our platform, we aim to create unique and valuable insights into societal issues. We kicked off our platform by establishing a partnership with the collective think tank by Wasserman, a global consortium of today’s greatest academic minds and industry leaders working together on insights that drive actions to create a world of parity. Further, we are working on our own project in collaboration with an expert round from adidas.
Partners
Our general approach for projects on these platforms is to onboard a team of dedicated students that complete either a workshop or longer-term industry project with a partner on a question relevant to the industry. This practical approach created profound and deep insights combining academic knowledge and practical challenges. We would like to thank our partners for the insightful current and past collaborations.
Current Projects
Spring 2022
Our industry projects generally run on a semester basis aligned with the semester dates in St. Gallen. We start projects in March and September and end them in July and December. Each platform has freedom regarding the exact mode of creation of impulses. In general, the aim is to create a published output that can qualitatively or even quantitatively illustrate the value for the discourse of the specific platform.
