The Economics of Renewal: Why Future Pressures Will Drive a Competitive Edge

Leaders must strive to maintain operational continuity while driving profitable growth in an increasingly constrained global environment. Pressures around resource scarcity, rising energy demands, and shifting societal expectations are reshaping the very economics of doing business, reducing maneuverability and demanding new approaches to resilience and innovation.

In this webinar, Everest Group experts Jillian Walker, Vinay Venkatesan, and Siddesh Mahadevan examined how these evolving dynamics are converging into three transformational Mega Forces.

The conversation focussed on how leading enterprises are adapting to ensure resilience under pressure, reimagining their operating models through regenerative business thinking, and responding to the realities of an energy-intensive world.

This topic has become especially urgent as today’s economic environment is characterized by capital tightening, inflation volatility, growing supply volatility and increasing stakeholder scrutiny. Enterprises must make strategic choices that not only protect near-term performance but also lay the groundwork for long-term value creation.

Attendees gained insight into which business pressures present the most immediate risk to continuity and growth. They also heard how innovative organizations are transforming constraints into drivers of renewal and differentiation, and learn the practical steps that business leaders can take now to future-proof their operations in a resource-limited, high-pressure environment.
