Welcome to the Center for Strategic Corporate Foresight and Sustainability (CSCFS)

The 21st century brings profound changes in technology, business, and society, alongside growing environmental and sustainability challenges. Understanding these developments is essential for making informed decisions and preparing for what lies ahead.

The Center for Strategic Corporate Foresight and Sustainability (CSCFS) at SBS Swiss Business School explores emerging trends, risks, and opportunities through research and knowledge exchange. By connecting strategic foresight with sustainability, the Center examines how organizations can navigate uncertainty, adapt to change, and pursue long-term, responsible growth.

Connecting Research, Foresight and Sustainability

The challenges facing business and society rarely exist in isolation. Technological developments, changing human behavior, economic shifts, and environmental pressures are interconnected. Understanding these relationships is essential to exploring possible futures and making informed decisions today.

At CSCFS, our work is guided by the belief that progress should be informed by evidence, open to different perspectives, and mindful of its wider implications. We connect research, strategic foresight, and sustainability to deepen understanding of change and support more informed, responsible decisions.
