Join us with Guest Speaker Leena Al Olaimy, Founder & CEO of Trillion Tree Fund  –Topic: Peace, Planet & Prosperity  – Does social and environmental impact need to come at a cost, or can it drive prosperity and innovation? Within the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and a post-pandemic world, how can governments, business and civil society “build better” without comprising profits and economic growth?

She has over 20 years of global experience in corporate, public, social, and multilateral sectors.
