Corporate Social Responsibility Event
11.13.2007 - 11.14.2007
Summit on the Future of the Corporation
The Summit on the Future of the Corporation, is inspired by the
growing tension between the emergence of the corporation as the world's
most powerful and innovative social institution and the growing severity
of social and environmental problems that plague billions of people. As
the tension between these two realities grows, the roles, responsibilities
and rights of business are the subject of increasing controversy, as are
the relationships of the corporation to government and civil society. At
the same time, it is a moment of opportunity for business to apply its
unparalleled resources to solving pressing global issues. This complex
landscape is evolving, contested and, to a large measure, unresolved.
The event will offer fresh perspectives on key building blocks of the
corporation, including its governance, directors' duties, ownership,
capitalization, primacy of investors' claims, and internal rewards and
incentives.
The Summit marks an historical moment for considering how the most
influential social institution of our time can serve the broader public
interest essential to its own long-term prosperity, and to begin designing
corporate forms that recognize the reciprocity between private and public
interests.
