Annual Lecture with Paul Polman 

Paul Polman, chief executive of Unilever, gave our 2012 Annual Lecture. It was a masterclass in bold marketing leadership.

We were proud to host our Annual Lecture with Paul Polman, CEO of Unilever who shared his vision and inspiration for sustainability. As the world’s population passes seven billion, and the effects of all our consumption become more obvious, the business world has recognised that it is time to take action and encourage mindful consumption. Paul Polman told us how this can be done. We heard all about the Unilever Sustainable Living Plan and put our questions to the CEO of one of the world’s leading businesses.
