WELCOME TO KWM'S 7th EDITION OF NEXT
NEXT exists to bring you a considered perspective on over-the-horizon issues for business. We’re excited to keep doing so with this edition, and an expanded offering for 2024 – more on that below.
In this edition, we bring you practical discussion on risk management culture, ESG reporting and measuring social impact.
We also take a thoughtful dive into what prospective changes to Australia’s merger laws are likely to mean for any organisation either considering a deal or approached for one. Spoiler alert – a major shakeup awaits!
Click through to the articles and we hope you’ll see a consistent theme – responsible business is everyone’s business. This idea is at the core of the collaborative, joined-up approach we seek to promote by aligning our impact and commercial work under the concept of responsible business.
We’re also excited to bring you more ideas exploring this theme. In 2024, we’ll be offering a series of podcasts and events to compliment this publication – stay tuned!
