2007 Global Compact Leaders Summit

Chaired by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, the 2007 Global Compact Leaders Summit will be the largest event ever convened by the United Nations for the benefit of the international business community and other Global Compact stakeholders. With the theme "Facing Realities: Getting Down to Business", the Summit will be a working meeting designed to help leaders find and scale up solutions so that global markets can be made more sustainable, dynamic, and inclusive. Through peer-to-peer interactions, business leaders will be given access to never-before released intelligence on socio-economic and geopolitical megatrends while developing frameworks to address a range of issues at the nexus of business and society – including climate change, human rights, anti-corruption, and access to finance.

The Leaders Summit will feature an international line-up of business leaders, government ministers, and heads of civil society.
