The Stream (with Will & Tom)
Cascading innovation across multinationals with Carolina Garcia Arbelaez | S4 Ep10
This week, Carolina Garcia Arbelaez, Global Sustainability and Innovation Director at Anheuser-Busch InBev, joins Will Sarni and Tom Freyberg to talk about:
- Her origin story from Colombia, with a legal background but moving into a position at the World Wildlife Fund (WWF)
- Having a “eureka moment”, looking from the outside in on multinationals and realising that the private sector has the power to drive change, at scale
- The development of the 100+ Accelerator, now in partnership with Unilever, the Coca-Cola Company and Colgate Palmolive, and the way they’re seeing this as collaboration over competition.
- An innovation focus on single plastics, with the Corona Plastic Free Challenge
- And finally, we address the elephant in the room: biodiversity loss and the role of multinationals.
And much much more!
