The objective of this panel symposium is to explore and analyse the dynamic interplay between multinational enterprises (MNEs), the evolving landscape of Industry 4.0, and the integration of purpose-driven initiatives, such as sustainability and circular economy principles, within global business strategies. The symposium aims to shed light on the challenges, constraints, and hindrances faced by MNEs as they navigate the complex intersection of Industry 4.0 and purpose-driven practices. This panel will be very interactive with the audience as we want to answer as many questions as possible.
