What if companies could become a net positive force for the world?
Not just “less negative”, not merely “responsible”, but genuinely positive for society, the environment and the economy. 

Net Positive Business is EDHEC Business School’s podcast exploring this strategic paradigm shift in depth: moving from an impact-reduction logic to one of net positive value creation.

Through a series of educational and practical episodes, the podcast gives a voice to EDHEC researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, sustainable finance experts and practitioners who are experimenting with, questioning and implementing Net Positive Business in real-world contexts.

  • Case studies from companies and start-ups daring to transform their business models
