Panel discussions and contributions from inspiring speakers provided insights on topics such as social entrepreneurship, paradigm shifts, and decarbonization.

Statements & Reactions
“The RMER Conference enabled us to bring international experts in the field of education for sustainable development and responsible business management to the MCI, who further developed these topics in an intensive exchange with each other and with local actors – also in the context of entrepreneurship. We are pleased about the many positive responses and the opportunities for further international cooperation resulting from this.”
Regina Obexer & Desiree Wieser, Conference Coordinators, MCI Center for Responsible Management & Social Impact

“Sustainable development and responsible management are central topics at MCI. Through this conference, we have created an international stage that has focused on the urgency of these concerns, but also on the positive approaches of co-creative collaboration between different stakeholders far beyond the Entrepreneurial School®. The results and responses inspire us to continue working on these issues with energy and strength.”
Andreas Altmann, MCI-Rector
