About this talk

This event is part of the LSE Festival: How to save the planet running from Monday 15 to Saturday 20 June 2026. The panel will discuss whether SME and large private firms and financial actors can develop solutions not just in technology, but by more radically rethinking their social form and purpose. Is it actually possible for firms and finance to buck the trend of destructive economic activity, and if so, how? What challenges do these emergent actors face in scaling up those activities, and what do those challenges teach us about the next steps we need to take to develop a less destructive, altogether more regenerative form of economic activity and thought?
