The idea that companies should only care about maximising profits and making shareholders happy at the expense of everything else
is now quickly becoming passé. Global issues like climate change, inequality, poverty, hunger and other pressing problems require a
concerted response from all stakeholders, which includes businesses. As the theme of the e-seminar aptly asks, should we continue to
“do things right” in pursuit of diverse and often disparate agendas, or is it time for us to come together to “do the right things” – for
ourselves, our children, and the generations that come after? On this grand canvas of ambitious visions and unremitting efforts to make
the world a better place, what is the role of real estate and its practitioners? Join us on 23 November 2021, to hear from established experts
in the field as they share their insights.
