Christian Berg

The topics of sustainability, innovation and resilience are the passions of scientist Prof. Dr Christian Berg. He is driven by many questions: How do we deal responsibly with creation? How can we ensure that as many people as possible can live well without putting the future at risk? What role does the economy play in this? What can companies do to operate more sustainably? How can the political framework help to set the right incentives for sustainability, and what can each and every individual do? His drive is to understand the context of today’s challenges in order to draw the right conclusions.
