At BusinessGreen's recent Net Zero Festival, Ioannou joined editor in chief James Murray for a fascinating, wide-ranging touching on what inspired his interest in business sustainability, how he inspires his students' interest in the topic, and - crucially - how to inspire more businesses and governments to ramp up their climate efforts.
