Acompáñenos en una recepción privada en la Real Academia de las Artes para explorar cómo el emprendimiento social y la inversión de impacto están dando forma a las normas de las asociaciones mundiales para dar prioridad a las personas y a nuestra biodiversidad.
La recepción está organizada por NESsT, que ha apoyado a 14.000 emprendedores en 50 países durante los últimos 20 años.
