Episode #86 – Mya Doelling and Julie Duffus explain how and why the IOC is mapping its sustainability goals with its partners’ to amplify positive impact

A focus on purpose and sustainability is shifting sports partnerships from traditional transactional deals to deeper, strategic, holistic relationships.
