Jayanti Kar’s Post

➡️ If you missed it, check out the highlights from our Global Business Building Summit 2024 in London, where we convened over 110 leaders from disruptors, investors, and corporates. We addressed two critical questions: 1. How does the UK climate technology ecosystem become more competitive?  2. How do climate technology companies accelerate the path to profitability and scale in the UK? Hear from speakers Julia Pallé and Robert Trezona along with McKinsey experts Jayanti Kar, Harry Forbes, Gisa Springer, Alastair Hamilton, Tamim Saleh on what it takes to accelerate the path to profitability and scale in the UK’s innovation economy.

I’m reminded of the richness that different perspectives bring to global discourse. John's analysis of geopolitical dynamics and Jeffrey’s focus on sustainable development highlight two critical facets of today’s complex world. The world is diverse, and so must be our approaches. The key lies in being strategically balanced and forward-looking, blending political realism with long-term global sustainability. This is how we can collectively shape a more resilient future. https://lnkd.in/dAXjgYCw

An interesting read: My colleague Julie Hood just recently shared our Institutional Investor Report. It shows: As Europe's economy recovers, we're entering an exciting new phase of dealmaking. Institutional investors are now sending a clear message to investee companies to focus especially on three things: 1. long-term revenue, 2. digital transformation, 3. and a commitment to sustainability.   What's important: These three points will only work out together. Three-fifths of European Institutional Investors continue to prioritize #sustainability in their investment portfolios, with the majority indicating that it has become even more important. At the same time, 70% of them agree that technology and #AI hold the answers to many of the key sustainability challenges. If you want a deep-dive on what’s challenging, what’s a priority and why investors in Europe anticipate an uplift in #mergersandacquisitions in 2024, take a closer look at the report.   #BetterWorkingWorld #CEOs

Complex problems, conflicting ideas, and the feeling that things are spinning out of control. It's easy to get bogged down in negativity, but what if we shifted our focus? This article by Dr Morne Mostert, originally published in 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗗𝗮𝘆, takes a critical look at some of our biggest challenges and proposes a new way forward: https://lnkd.in/dket3_v9 #EDThoughts #StrategicForesight #BusinessDay Jane Lewis | Kerry Smallie | Chris van der Hoven

I hold the deepest respect for Prof. Sachs, a man who consistently champions peace and humanity. His integrity, courage, and intelligence are legendary. The key difference between Jeffrey and John on China lies in their perspectives: one has regularly visited China, while the other views it through the lens of a U.S.-centric mindset. We teach culture implications for international businesses, and we have seen how multinational companies fail abroad by applying home-grown strategies that don't account for local cultures and realities. In a world where the media spreads biases and misinformation about China, the best approach is to see China for yourself. It’s safe, green, it has modern infrastructure, welcoming people, delicious food and cutting-edge technology. China is changing rapidly. Those who haven’t visited in the past three years will notice a cleaner, greener, and more convenient environment. People who visited China return with a transformed view. At the core, people are people—regardless of culture, we all share the same pursuit of peace, love, and a fulfilling life, not war.
