Sustainability Strategy Showdown

The Sustainability Strategy Showdown, organized by the Indian School of Business (ISB) in collaboration with the Munjal Institute of Global Manufacturing, is a forward-thinking competition that encourages participants to devise innovative, sustainable strategies that are ready for future challenges. The competition focuses on crafting solutions that are environmentally friendly while demonstrating economic viability in a competitive global market.

Participants are tasked with addressing a specific problem statement that calls for the creation of sustainable practices within industries. The competition structure involves assessing current operational inefficiencies to uncover potential improvements, integrating cutting-edge green technologies, and developing strategies that balance the triple bottom line of people, planet, and profit. The aim is to encourage innovation and practicality, ensuring that proposed solutions are not only groundbreaking but also realistic and implementable.

The ultimate goal of the event is for teams to present comprehensive and actionable plans that effectively demonstrate the application of their proposed sustainability strategies. These presentations should showcase how sustainable practices can be economically advantageous and lead to real-world changes. By highlighting the integration of ethical considerations in business strategy, the Sustainability Strategy Showdown aspires to inspire future leaders to embrace sustainability as a core aspect of business operations.
