On 9 April, more than 400 visionaries, decision-makers and change leaders gathered for the Gothenburg Sustainability Summit. The focus was on pioneering leadership: the ability to navigate uncertainty, challenge established patterns, and drive sustainable transformation when it truly matters. A common thread ran through the entire day – that leadership is not only about external structures and strategies, but equally about the inner dimension – people’s own capacity for reflection, self-awareness and resilience.

What's currently at the forefront of the global sustainability agenda? Well, it's a mix of several crucial issues, as always. That's precisely why the WIN WIN Award adopts a focused approach: we zero in on one highly pertinent topic – a theme – and give it our undivided attention.
