<p><u><strong>2025 East meets West Conference Recordings</strong></u></p><p><strong>Entrepreneurship, finally recognising their unexploited potential </strong>The major part of the economical business activity in Europe is the daily work of millions of smaller businesses, often not in the spotlight but key to our economical welfare.

2025 East meets West Conference - Corporate Panel
<p><u><strong>2025 East meets West Conference Recording</strong></u></p><p><strong>Corporates, showing their true colors without airs and graces or any pretense </strong>Until recently many corporates have been major supporters of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, not in the least in the funding of civil society groups world wide. Internally, they included these DEI values in the DNA of their companies. The recent US legislation and legal decisions have forced them to re-evaluate these policies. Some just dropped their DEI values, others reaffirmed their DEI beliefs and developed new activities that they consider to allow them to continue their support. We will focus on these corporate players and how they have reacted to the new situation. You will hear from corporate insiders how these key players have not forsaken their existing DEI focus and try to continue to keep playing their major role. Panelists:- Elisabeth Dal-Bianco, Communication Operations Manager at IKEA, <strong>Austria</strong>- Réka R. Artner, Head of BOLD Community at Austrian Federal Economic Chamber, <strong>Austria</strong>- Hannes Mösenbacher, Chief Risk Officer (CRO) at Raiffeisen Bank International, <strong>Austria</strong>- Matt Foster, Director of Inclusion and Impact at Ogilvy, <strong>The United Kingdom</strong>moderated by Katja Kreiner, People Management at RDB, <strong>Austria</strong></p>
