The Enterprise for Society Center (E4S) will train future managers to meet the challenges of sustainability and social responsibility, in part by leveraging the opportunities presented by digital technology. The aim of E4S - a joint initiative between University of Lausanne (UNIL), International Institute for Management Development (IMD) and EPFL - will be to inspire the development of a sustainable, inclusive economic system. The first step will be the launch of a joint Master's program. With the 2020s just around the corner, the world faces a host of challenges including climate change, rising populism and how to respond to the digital revolution. The first two speak directly to future generations, and the third one will involve profound shifts and give rise to important opportunities. This has led three Swiss institutions, mindful of their social responsibility to shape the future, to team up on a unique joint initiative. UNIL , IMD and EPFL will combine technological innovations and new economic and management governance tools to come up with sustainable solutions to these global challenges.
