Annemarie Meisling, who heads up Chr. Hansen’s sustainability efforts, has been recognized as a Meaningful Business 100 (MB100) Leader by HotTopics.ht, a global business thought leadership platform.
The platform recognizes leaders who are combining profit and purpose to help achieve the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The inaugural MB100 leaders were curated through a rigorous nomination process, led by an expert panel of 12 judges. The platform received over 500 peer nominations, from more than 50 countries, with each one scored across four key areas: leadership, innovation, scope and durability.
Founding Editor of HotTopics.ht, Tom Lytton-Dickie, speaking on the MB100 list, “We are delighted to recognize Annemarie Meisling as part of the Meaningful Business 100, which celebrates leaders from across the world, cutting across geography, industry, role and company size.
