About AND is the Future
AND is the Future, hosted by Ilham Kadri, Special Advisor of Syensqo, brings together great minds to explore how businesses can be both sustainable AND profitable through innovation and science. The best leaders practice the power of AND. To us, this means embracing ideas and behaviors that others might perceive as opposite or in conflict. Leaders who are daring AND caring. Leaders who are guided by science AND deeply human. Leaders who are strong AND show vulnerability. Leaders who focus on profitability AND sustainability with equal importance. The power of AND is about believing in and embracing both. In And is the Future, Ilham sits down with great thought leaders and inspirational minds across the globe to discuss some of the most important issues facing businesses today. Find out how we can do well AND do good in business with former CEO of DSM Feike Sijbesma; Hear about what business leaders can learn from space travel with Helen Sharman, the first British person in space; Discover the connection between disruption AND sustainable leadership with former Dow CEO Andrew Liveris; Learn how the Sustainable Development Goals can lead to incredible business opportunities with Marga Hoek; Explore how science can be at the service of humanity with Nobel Prize winners Steven Chu and Ben Feringa; Listen to an episode on chemistry AND music with renowned scientist and pianist Nuno Maulide - and that’s just the beginning! Have you ever thought about how chemistry can enable a sustainable future? Did you know there's a connection between art and science, or between sustainable growth and health? What can athletes teach us about sustainable business? AND is the future will open your minds to discover business from a wider perspective and to embrace the AND in your leadership journey.
