The CEO Talk initiative shows that companies do not only care about environmental and social contribution of its own, but also of the contribution of their stakeholders. Following previous CEO talks on strategies in sustainability along the value chain, the 3rd talk will focus on corporate talent strategy as “The Force” for innovation and better fulfillment of social responsibilities.

As a pioneer to drive technology innovation and sustainability in the industry, the United Technologies Corporation (UTC) has strategized its talents empowerment approach with both internal Employee Scholar Program (ESP) that supports its employee’s life-long learning, and the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) program that inspire the future generation of scientists, engineers and change makers.
