Über Verpflichtungen hinaus: Nachhaltigkeit und Wirkung in der realen Welt erzielen
As geopolitical tensions reshape operating environments, companies and investors are increasingly tested in how they deliver on sustainability and impact commitments. The challenge is no longer whether to act, but how to stay credible as conditions grow more complex. This session brings together actors across the value chain — from sourcing to operating and investing in frontier and complex markets — to explore how business decisions are made in practice and how meaningful outcomes can be delivered.

Operating in frontier and complex markets raises challenges that standard sustainability approaches often fail to capture. Risks are systemic, context-driven, and shaped by local dynamics — and business decisions are rarely neutral. Choices around sourcing, investment, security, or partnerships can influence stability, social cohesion, and human rights outcomes, with direct implications for returns, reputation, and long-term market access. This session moves beyond traditional risk framing to explore the opportunities and strategies that enable actors to operate responsibly and credibly — and how doing good and doing well are not mutually exclusive in these environments.
