Building a meaningful and purpose-oriented business future, creating valuable connections and establishing strong bonds.

In the previous editions of the Companies with a Human Side Symposium, we explored the human entrepreneurial aspect from different perspectives. In the tenth edition, we look toward a future of purpose, not as something distant, but as something rooted in the present and shaped by lessons learned.

This approach gives cohesion and meaning to the Symposium and motivates us to share knowledge, prioritising the act of giving and fostering cooperation, assistance and service. The Symposium has become a space to present knowledge learned for a future with purpose, promoting an enriching dialogue between young people and adults, as well as between companies.
