Koedijk (left), Professor of Financial Management and former Chair of the Department of Financial Management at RSM.

| The symposium will be chaired by Cees Veerman, Professor of Sustainable Rural Development in European Perspective, Tilburg University, Wageningen University and Chair of the Vereniging Natuurmonumenten, of the Deltacommissie, and of the Supervisory Board Climate Change Research. | |||||||||||||||||
| Key note speaker will be renowned German chemist Michael Braungart who will talk about the world-famous “cradle to cradle concept” he developed in cooperation with his colleague William McDonough. Braungart will make the case that an industrial system that "takes, makes and wastes" can become a creator of goods and services that generate ecological, social and economic value. As such, this concept fits perfectly with the research Koedijk conducts into the role of financial markets in promoting sustainable development. | |||||||||||||||||
