Inform your discussions and decisions this week: the stories that shaped 2021, and a forward look to the industries set to drive growth in emerging markets.
The team at Economist Impact wishes you a truly special holiday season. For this year's final Perspectives, we've curated our most popular features from the sustainability, health and new globalisation sectors for you to revisit as you recharge.
Sustainability—identify new ways to navigate climate-related risk ahead of your January strategy sessions with five key takeaways from Climate Risk Europe.
New Globalisation—inspire ideas to improve supply chain stability in your operating environment; our head of globalisation shares his analysis with The Drum.
Health—plan ahead with forecasts for future pandemic preparedness. Revisit insights from the World Health Summit.
We look forward to bringing you insights on the world's biggest issues when Perspectives returns, on Wednesday January 12th 2022. In the meantime, visit economistimpact.com to learn how you can turn your ideas into action.
