"I would just love to see companies take ownership of their social and environmental impact and become as transparent as possible. That's really table stakes for any brand, it's not just purpose driven ones." - Lizzie Horvitz, Founder at Finch

5 Key Highlights:

1. Power of Purpose-Driven Brands: This webinar highlights the growing trend of consumers seeking out sustainable and purpose-driven brands. Learn how brands can embed sustainability into their DNA and why consumers are gravitating towards sustainable products.

2. Understanding 'Clean' in Brands: There’s plenty of  confusion around the term 'clean' in branding. Learn how companies are defining it for their customers, and gain firsthand insight from special guests Emily Hazlett from Genexa and Lizzie Horvitz from Finch who share their experiences of creating clean medicine in their companies.

Learn about the challenges in developing genuinely sustainable products and the importance of simplicity and transparency in product packaging.
