We heard Fiona McAnena, brand director, Bupa, Chris MacLeod, director of group marketing, TFL, Sarah Speake, strategic marketing director, Google and Ian Armstrong, global communications director, Jaguar.

For those of you unable to attend, we’ve summarised a snapshot of the advice on our blog.

Annual Lecture with Paul Polman

The Guardian Professional Network recently ran a story about the determination of business leaders to create new models for sustainability in 2012, saying, “Despite numerous gloomy predictions, there is precious little sign that mainstream business is going soft on sustainable development.” The article mentioned Unilever’s CEO Paul Polman who has said that “we have a unique opportunity... to bring about ‘mindful’ consumption”. It is inspiring to hear the optimism of such a prominent business leader at the start of the new year, and we are thrilled that Paul Polman is delivering our Annual Lecture this spring.
