We recently caught up with Carlsberg’s Global Head of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, Julie Folmer-Niemann, to discover how she was feeling ahead of our exclusive event next week and her predictions for the future of the industry.
At Sustainability LIVE: Diversity & Inclusion, Julie will be delivering a keynote presentation that will explore Carlsberg’s DE&I Guidebook.

Looking ahead, I believe that successful DE&I strategies will need to be adapted to fit the unique cultural and regional contexts of each area. When we treat DE&I as a one-size-fits-all model, we risk missing out on genuine progress and creating 'DE&I fatigue'. By tailoring strategies to local cultures, we can make a much greater impact, empowering each region to take actions that truly matter to them. I’m hopeful that this approach will lead to more meaningful, sustainable outcomes in the decade ahead.
