Inheriting and promoting the success of the first Forum held in October 2021, VietStar Training and Consulting JSC (VIETSTAR) and Singapore Management University (SMU) will jointly organize the second Vietnam – Singapore Board Forum.

Sharing about the continuity of the Forum this year, Ms. Pham Thu Hang, VietStar CEO & VSBF Director said:

The time has come for enterprises to associate sustainability not with trade-offs, but with competitive advantage, and enduring business performance. Organisations and Leaders that incorporate Sustainability into the Heart of Business Strategy will benefit from more resilient supply chain, efficient business practices, enhanced stakeholder interactions, improved governance, and ultimately better longer-term financial performance and value creation.
