OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Radical hope: Reimagining capitalism for climate crisis
Please join us for the 2024 Battcock Lecture.
Smith School Director, Professor Mette Morsing, welcomes Professor Rebecca Henderson, HEEP Faculty Fellow, John and Natty McArthur University Professor, Harvard University, as this year’s guest speaker.
“It’s the most successful economic system to have ever existed, but capitalism is in danger of destroying itself — and our world.”
TED talk veteran and author Rebecca Henderson will be in conversation with Cameron Hepburn, Oxford Battcock Professor of Environmental Economics.
Professor Henderson will bring her deep expertise in economics, psychology and organisational behaviour to share a bold approach to a better world. The speakers will discuss radical hope in the face of climate crisis, and explore emerging narratives including techno-optimism, system change and mindset shifts. What does it mean to truly make a difference?
The Humphrey Battcock Lecture is a joint collaboration of the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment, University of Oxford and host, New College, Oxford. The event will also be live-streamed on YouTube. Register now!
