(CSRwire) NEW YORK, NY - May 21, 2008, - From stock option dating scandals to product recalls to shareholder revolts to environmental and energy-use concerns, the high tech industries have many lessons to share with Corporate Responsibility Officers. The June 18 Summer CRO Conference in San Francisco, we will feature high tech CR luminaries Dave Stangis from Intel, Tod Arbogast from Dell, and Marcy Lynn from Sun Microsystems, covering the lessons that high tech has for other industries. This session is just one of 10 headline-grabbing sessions at the CRO Conference at San Francisco's Marine's Memorial Club on June 18. Registration is limited to 220, and conference organizers urge attendees to register online soon at www.thecro.com/conferences.

The full CRO Conference agenda is featured at www.thecro.com/conferences, and includes keynotes from CRO Magazine's '100 Best Corporate Citizens' list #10 PG&E CEO Peter Darbee, and lessons from America's Greenest City featuring an award to San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom. Darbee and Newsom are among 20 headline-grabbing speakers on the one-day program on a program that features several 100 Best list companies including #1 Intel, #19 Sun Microsystems and #67 McKesson. In recent days, CRO's 100 Best list has received massive press coverage from Marketwatch.com, MSNBC.com, and American Public Media.

"The CRO Conference is where the $37 billion Corporate Responsibility industry gathers to learn the state-of-the-art in governance, compliance and sustainability performance," says CRO Magazine Publisher and CRO Conference Chair Jay Whitehead. "The 2008 Summer conference will shine a bright light on the lessons that great companies such as PG&E, Intel, Dell, Sun and Kaiser have for everyone else."
