Quantis’ Global Fashion and Chemicals Lead, Philipp Meister, connects with Sabine Loetscher, who heads Fashion, Sporting Goods and Chemicals in Switzerland, for a grounded conversation on what’s next for sustainability leaders — with a close-up on the Swiss market. As nature, product, digitalization and regulation continue to shape priorities, Sabine makes it clear that leadership is the game-changer. When sustainability is championed at the top, it becomes more than a function — it becomes a lever for innovation, resilience and long-term value. Across sectors like Watches and Jewelry and Sporting Goods, a shift toward nature-positive strategies is taking root — holistic in vision, yet deeply local in action. Sabine also highlights a growing appetite for collective action, where shared goals replace competition and progress scales across entire industries.
