accelerate this development.</p> </blockquote> <p>We require a common and profound understanding of what businesses and institutions really need to overcome these challenges.</p> <p>Our research will shed some light on this question and will be shared among all relevant stakeholders to help create targeted supports.</p> <p>Therefore we would encourage leaders to get involved and share their thoughts by completing this 5 minutes <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScK-LUZ9KFeo9bib42ghezTQH_zLZ6AdE3bSFJyuOzESh-tyw/viewform" target="_blank">Organisational Sustainability
