The Institute of Directors (IoD) in Guernsey has confirmed the theme for their 2021 Annual Convention: this event will focus on sustainability and how it is integral to the island’s global brand and the wider economy.

Taking place on Thursday 14th October at Beau Sejour the event, sponsored by Carey Olsen, is entitled ‘Can a small island make a big impact on a global issue?’ and will host hundreds of business leaders.

Building on the themes from the last two Annual Conventions, the event will develop Simon Anholt’s Nation Brands concept. The Nation Brands hexagon ranks countries’ attractiveness and success based on six key areas: people, tourism, exports, governance, investment & immigration, and culture & heritage. In a break from the format of previous IoD Conventions, these themes will be explored in a series of short TED-style talks.

Amongst other speakers, the audience will hear from Tom Rivett-Carnac, one of the architects of the Paris Climate Agreement, a founding partner of Global Optimism and co-author of The Future We Choose. Currently Tom is advising the UK Government on their COP 26 participation, which is being held just weeks after the IoD’s convention.

Wendy Dorey, Chair of IoD Guernsey, said: “We have a real opportunity to redefine Guernsey’s ‘nation brand’, where we are no longer seen as a tax haven, but as a net contributor to society and the world. Our green finance credentials, coupled with an abundance of natural capital, have the potential to become real economic multipliers – allowing us to create lasting value that can’t be eroded. With COP 26 – and several ‘tipping points’ – just around the corner, now is the time to ensure our actions create a sustainable future for Guernsey.”

More speakers will be confirmed in the coming weeks.
