Marga Hoek has been a CEO three times and is now an international Board Member, Chair, and boardroom advisor through her company Business for Good. Additionally, she is a partner at Chair Mentors International, which mentors CEOs of multinationals. Earlier, in 2010, Marga co-founded De Groene Zaak with a group of CEOs, an employers’ organization for sustainable enterprises. In 2012, she established Het Groene Brein and led this network as chair of the board. Het Groene Brein is a unique network of over 85 scientists that accelerates the transition to a sustainable economy through innovation. Marga introduced the term ‘Business for Good.’ It is her mission to demonstrate worldwide how businesses in every sector can perform well by doing good. Her vision as a thought leader is continuously shared in leading publications such as The Financial Times, Forbes, Fortune, Huff Post, CEO Today, and MIT Technology Review.
‘Tech for Good’
Marga is not only a visionary in sustainable business, capital, and technology but also a successful business leader. Her expertise is recognized globally at the highest level. As an award-winning bestselling author, a member of Thinkers50 (the international ranking of the most impactful management thinkers), and one of the most sought-after speakers on sustainable business, Marga inspires many companies and leaders around the world. Her most recent book, ‘Tech for Good,’ was released at the end of November, intentionally just before the start of Cop28. In it, she describes how technologies that characterize the fourth industrial revolution accelerate sustainable progress and can help solve the greatest challenges facing the world, while simultaneously creating business opportunities. She shows how purpose-driven entrepreneurs can successfully leverage advanced technologies to unlock new markets.
Lectures
Every lecture by Marga is ‘tailor-made’ and certainly not standard. “I believe it is important to create maximum value for the companies I speak for. I do not believe in standard lectures; every company and the people attending a lecture deserve thoughtful consideration of which content and story will have the most impact.” Supported by an international research team, Marga always provides innovative insights and ‘real-life cases’ from companies around the world.
