I rebel against any kind of injustice... I don’t think what is increasingly happening to people, because of the rate of change of things, is fair at the moment.
Paulo Azevedo

The Chairman of Sonae Group tells us about growing up in Portugal and England and the various stages of his ascent to the top of the Portuguese conglomerate.

We talk about what drives his belief in people and why reskilling and lifelong learning matter so much to him, in the context of his role of Chair of ERT’s Committee on Jobs, Skills & Impact. He also explains how he researches new interests every few years, his fascination with biodiversity and reveals what he is planning to learn next.
