BEYOND TODAY
Central Europe is a place where innovations and startups arise. It is home to small and medium enterprises as well as corporations. The transformation of business towards sustainability is a crucial topic. In particular, smaller and medium-sized enterprises do not have enough opportunities to share the implementation of sustainable solutions. They need a place where they can mutually exchange experiences.
Beyond Today is a conference that meets such a demand. It will feature presentations from company representatives – no consultants or theorists. Companies from various sectors will present not only what worked on their path to sustainability, but also what did not succeed on their way to a more sustainable future.
WHAT AWAITS YOU
Case projects of selected companies
Get inspired by ESG projects that truly help sustainable solutions. What did the project bring to the companies, what was challenging, and what would they do differently?
Beyond Zero
Showing the inspiring story of the company Interface, which fundamentally transformed business with a focus on long-term sustainability.
Effective workshops & networking
Exchange experiences with colleagues, make useful contacts. Ask about what interests you, and you won't leave without an answer.
FILM BEYOND ZERO
Beyond Zero is a document about the decision of the CEO of Interface to dramatically reduce the company's impact on the environment by 2020. It shows a path that initially met with resistance and distrust but ultimately convinced even skeptics and critics.
The film follows the steps of Ray C. Anderson – from the first idea to the concrete results that changed not only his company. It offers a perspective on sustainability that is the result of enlightened leadership, consistency of values that prevail not only in the business world.
