Description

Social entrepreneurship has taken off in the region, including in China, with remarkable energy and results. Governments and private organizations are taking note and increasingly supporting this sector through funding and enabling policies.

How might impact-focused entrepreneurs change the shape of nature conservation and sustainable use in China and elsewhere? What does their rise mean for the “sustainability recession” we seem to be going through?  

In Episode 11, we will hear from Richard Brubaker, an influential voice in both sustainability and social entrepreneurship circles in the region, but especially in China.

As the Managing Director of Collective Responsibility, a Shanghai-based consultancy, Richard has worked in Asia for the last 30 years with a diverse range of stakeholders on sustainability—from governments and multinational corporations to startups and academic institutions.
