Strickler ’86 and Mark T. Gallogly ’86 Faculty Director and Co-Director of the Tamer Center for Social Enterprise at Columbia Business School, provided closing remarks and next steps on improving interactions between business and society.
The 2017 Social Enterprise Leadership Forum—a joint effort by the Tamer Center for Social Enterprise at Columbia Business School and the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory—brought together climate scientists and business leaders to understand how new advances in climate science can inform investments in specific sectors of the global economy. The conference explored topics that address the value and opportunity of using a science-based approach to inform and guide business decisions.
